What a strange thing is man! and what a stranger Is woman! What a whirlwind is her head, And what a whirl-pool full of depth and danger Is all the rest about her! Whether wed, Or widow, maid or mother, she can change her Mind like the wind: whatever she has said Or done, is light to what she’ll say or do; — The oldest thing on record, and yet new!

all who joy would win Must share it, — Happiness was born a twin.
"Bring forth the horse!" — the horse was brought; In truth, he was a noble steed, A Tartar of the Ukraine breed, Who look'd as though the speed of thought Were in his limbs.
