On a Pale Lady with a Red-Nosed Husband

Whence comes it that in Clara’s face
	The lily only has its place? 
Is it because the absent rose
	Has gone to paint her husband’s nose? 

1. Shakespeare’s Monument at Stratford-upon-Avon
2. The Guard-Chamber
3. Bide ye yet by
4. Glen-Orra
5. Were Ye at the Pier o’ Leith?
