Alice Meynell (Элис Мейнелл)

Maternity

One wept whose only child was dead,
    New-born, ten years ago.
"Weep not; he is in bliss," they said.
    She answered, "Even so,

"Ten years ago was born in pain
    A child, not now forlorn.
But oh, ten years ago, in vain,
    A mother, a mother was born."
