Her husband's presence only, called that spot
Of joy into the Duchess' cheek: perhaps
Frà Pandolf chanced to say, “Her mantle laps
Over my lady's wrists too much,” or “Paint
Must never hope to

Half-flush that dies along her throat;” such stuff
Was courtesy, she thought, and cause enough
For calling up that spot of joy.

For she was always fond and full of chat,
In passing
harmless
jokes bout beaus and that,
But nothing then was scarcely talked about,
And what there was, I even forced it out.
