       He went, and he was gay to go;
       And I smiled on him as he went.
       My son, 'twas well he couldn't know
       My darkest dread, nor what it meant -

       Just what it meant to smile and smile
       And let my son go cheerily -
       My son . . . and wondering all the while
       What stranger would come back to me.
