War ends and he's returning	A
Early yea	B
The evening next to morrow's	C
This I say	C
To her whom I suspiciously survey	C
	-
Holding my husband's letter	D
To her view	E
She glanced at it but lightly	F
And I knew	E
That one from him that day had reached her too	E
	-
There was no time for scruple	G
Secretly	F
I filched her missive conned it	H
Learnt that he	F
Would lodge with her ere he came home to me	F
	-
To reach the port before her	D
And unscanned	H
There wait to intercept them	I
Soon I planned	H
That in her stead I might before him stand	H
	-
So purposed so effected	H
At the inn	J
Assigned I found her hidden	K
O that sin	J
Should bear what she bore when I entered in	J
	-
Her heavy lids grew laden	K
With despairs	C
Her lips made soundless movements	C
Unawares	C
While I peered at the chamber hired as theirs	C
	-
And as beside its doorway	C
Deadly hued	H
One inside one withoutside	H
We two stood	H
He came my husband as she knew he would	H
	-
No pleasurable triumph	L
Was that sight	H
The ghastly disappointment	H
Broke them quite	H
What love was theirs to move them with such might	H
	-
Madam forgive me said she	F
Sorrow bent	H
A child I soon shall bear him	M
Yes I meant	H
To tell you that he won me ere he went	H
	-
Then as it were within me	F
Something snapped	H
As if my soul had largened	H
Conscience capped	H
I saw myself the snarer them the trapped	H
	-
My hate dies and I promise	C
Grace beguiled	H
I said to care for you be	F
Reconciled	H
And cherish and take interest in the child	H
	-
Without more words I pressed him	M
Through the door	N
Within which she stood powerless	C
To say more	N
And closed it on them and downstairward bore	N
	-
He joins his wife my sister	D
I below	O
Remarked in going lightly	F
Even as though	O
All had come right and we had arranged it so	O
	-
As I my road retracing	A
Left them free	F
The night alone embracing	A
Childless me	F
I held I had not stirred God wrothfully	F
