Silhouette
He preached of the sins of the world – and of evil
That ever seeks triumph in man.
He thundered of lust,
Of hell-fire and dust,
Of flesh and the devil;
And then – he was civil –
Said, "Do come to dine when you can."
His wife cooked the dinner, and served it, and kept
The children all quiet;
Though he would deny it,
And wonder just why
The baby must cry
Exactly at meal-times, or else when he slept;
While she scrubbed, mended, dusted, and swept.
Do you think he found out, when his nine lost their mother?
Of course not; he married another.
– Flora Brent Hamilton (1929)
