After a Titanic Struggle, Gives Birth to An Epigram .

When royal Love designs to visit Man
He dons his purple robes, his crown of fire;
And, with a treasure-laden caravan,
He smiles and goes — accompanied by Desire.

But, when Love designs to come to Woman, he
Puts off his royal vestments, leaves his throne;
And with nor pride nor pompous pageantry,
He goes — so every woman says, — alone.
