Thread Name: The Wiser Maid (please critique!)
Subject: RE: THE WISER MAID (please critique!)
P.S. I have one other line alternative that I'm not totally happy with, but at least it rhymes. Eurgh. Instead of:
"What of this John you love so well? What word do you receive?
For surely he'll have written you of his brave, noble deeds?"
I'm trying this:
What of this John you love so well? What word do you receive?
For surely he'll have written home, your sorrows to relieve?"
Still not great, but slightly more legitimate.
