BEFORE ACTION.

BEFORE ACTION.

We always had our work at night. I wondered why we had to be so sly. I wondered why we couldn't have our fight • Under the open sky. I wondered why I always felt so cold. I wondered why the orders seemed so slow So slow to come, so whisperingly told, So whisperingly low. I wondered if my packing straps were tight, And wondered why I wondered. . . . Sound went wild An order came I rau into the night, Wondering why I emiled.
