''GISELLE'' Only the moon can sha1·e her grief, An cl midnight chimes ca1·ess. None till he dies can love her now A spirit, mortal still in mind. ' She does not live in Jight of day. Enclosed uy ferns and marble cross; Transpa r ent wisp of light by moon, A soul, now lost like those before. 1\.s midnight knells from nearby i·uins ·.t'hey gather in nocturna l rite; To dance to death unwm·y men, Who ehance to pass on homewan1 way. All know the magic of the Wili, The maiden that was once betrothed, And on t he e,·e of wedcling, died . And wa its till he by death can rome.

-YVONNE BURCHILL, III.A.
