THE SECRET by OLIVER BROOK HERFORD

First Line: WHEN PRUDENCE WEARS HER MASK, AH ME!
Last Line: TAKES OFF HER MASK.
Subject(s): PRUDENCE; CAUTION;

@3When Prudence wears her mask, ah me!
To penetrate the mystery
Of her veiled eyes were verily
A hopeless task.

A secret that betrays no clue
Is there. But that is nothing to
The secret of her eyes, when Prue
Takes off her mask.@1
