HEBE So they hustled Hebe out of France,

To Spain, or may be to England first.

Then hitherward over seas, by chance,

She came as you see her, always athirst,—

As if, like the tigresses that slink

In the village canes of Hindostan,

Of one rare draught she loves to think,

And ever to get it must plan and plan.
