Lucinda Matlock英文诗词

Lucinda Matlock英文诗词

　　Lucinda Matlock

　　by Edgar Lee Masters

　　I went to the dances at Chandlerville，

　　And played snap-out at Winchester.

　　One time we changed partners，

　　Driving home in the moonlight of middle June，

　　And then I found Davis.

　　We were married and lived together for seventy years，

　　Enjoying， working， raising the twelve children，

　　Eight of whom we lost

　　Ere I had reached the age of sixty.

　　I spun， I wove， I kept the house， I nursed the sick，

　　I made the garden， and for holiday

　　Rambled over the fields where sang the larks，

　　And by Spoon River gathering many a shell，

　　And many a flower and medicinal weed

　　Shouting to the wooded hills， singing to the green valleys.

　　At ninety-six I had lived enough， that is all，

　　And passed to a sweet repose.

　　What is this I hear of sorrow and weariness，

　　Anger， discontent and drooping hopes？

　　Degenerate sons and daughters，

　　Life is too strong for you

　　It takes life to love Life
