THE TEACHERS

I went to school with the tutor, Law,

A master severe and grim,

Who taught by the pain of the biting cane,

Yet learned I little of him.

 

I go to school with the teacher, Love,

And my lightened eyes can see

What the pain and the tears of the driven years

Could never reveal to me.
