Death And The Maiden

When Maidens Meet their Death

View attachment 244358


A maiden in her vernal years
Is full of life and joy!
So great our fears, so sharp our tears
When death comes to destroy.

View attachment 244362

And when, by accident or war
A maiden is condemned
We suffer sore emotion raw
That such young life must end.

View attachment 244357

We see a girl led out to die
The beauty and the cross
Such darkness lies beneath blue skies
A summertime of loss.

View attachment 244359

We hear the hammer as it clangs
We see her fight for breath;
And so she hangs in tortured pangs
Within the grasp of death.

We gaze upon that fearful sight –
What monsters, then, are we?
That take delight in maiden’s plight
And her mortality?

View attachment 244361

But yet, ‘tis not ‘delight’ we feel
As we, too, gasp for breath;
All humans feel emotions real
When maidens meet their death.
