Oh, speech fails my lips To give expression to the wretchedness The deep humiliating sense, the woe, That crept upon me with returning life.
I tried to reason with, and know, myself, For I did seem a puzzle to myself.
To see myself in such a wretched garb To find myself abandoned and ignored To know that even then a thousand men, Urged on a thousand horses at their speed From Shushan, trav ling, like diverging rays Out from a central sun, to reach at length The farthest limit of the mighty real...m, And that each bore with him a formal script, Bearing the King s sign-manual and seal, To every ruler in the Provinces, Writ in the sev ral various tongues of each, Proclaiming my dishonor by the law, And ordering these again to publish it To all their people, so that my disgrace And degradation might be known to all To see, to feel, to know all this and live, To live and still not be a maniac, VASHTI. 67 Was something that I can but marvel at. How am I fallen from mine high estate ! How am I punished for a thoughtless word Spoken in kindness and with good intent !
