Part 2 — I AM YOUR PRISONER.

———

BY THOMAS DUNN ENGLISH, M. D.

———

Lady! I bow before thee

A captive to thy will,

A spell of thine is o’er me,

But joy is with me still.

I yield me, not to beauty,

Though thou, indeed art fair;

I yield me—not to lightness,

Though thou art light as air.

I yield me, not to wisdom,

Thou wisest of thy kind,

But, rescue, or no rescue,

To thy purity of mind.
