Lesbia Harford

Here you will find the Poem O man, O woman, grievest so? of poet Lesbia Harford

O man, O woman, grievest so?

O man, O woman, grievest so? 
Art shut away from all delight, 
And must thou leave this garden plot? 
O Eve, O Adam, question not. 
The God is kind who would be cruel. 
He does not know the hearts he made. 
Turn unreluctant to the shade, 
To bitterest struggle, darkest night; 
man, O woman, happier so.
