For they the Royal-hearted Women are
Who nobly love the noblest, yet have grace
For needy, suffering lives in lowliest place;
Carrying a choicer sunlight in their smile,
The heaveniiest ray that pitieth the vile.

Though I were happy, throned beside the king,
I should be tender to each little thiDg
With hurt warm breast, that had no speech to tell
Its inward pangs; and I would sooth it well
With tender touch and with a low, soft moan
For company.
—George Eliot.
