I bring no words KATHRINA. 237 Of blame against you : you have been to me A comfort and a joy. Your constancy Has honored me as few of all my sex Are honored by your own ; but while you pine With secret pain, I am so wholly yours That I must pine with you. I've waited long For you to speak ; and now I come to you To ask you this one question : is there aught Of toil or sacrifice within my power To ease your heart, or give you liberty Beyond the round to which you hold your feet ?
Speak freely, ...frankly, as to one who loves Her husband better than her only child, And better than herself." I drew her head Down to my cheek, and said : " My angel wife I Whatever torment or disquietude I may have suffered, you have never been Its cause, or its occasion. You are all — You have been all — that womanhood can be To manhood's want ; and in your woman's love And woman's pain, I have found every good My life has known since first our lives were joined.
You knew me better than I knew myself ; And your prophetic words have haunted me Like thoughts of retribution : ' There will come ' A sad, sad time, when in your famished soul ' The cry for something more, and more divine ' Will rise, nor be repressed.'' For something more My spirit clamors : nothing more divine I ask for." "What shall be this 'something more'?" 238 KATHRINA.
