I TOOK my power in my hand
And went against the world;
’T was not so much as David had,
But I was twice as bold.
I aimed my pebble, but myself
Was all the one that fell.
Was it Goliath was too large,
Or only I too small?

Последни сили в шепа сбрах,
за да сразя света мастит;
и два пъти по-смела бях,
отколкото бе смел Давид.
Запратих камък — но тогаз
сама катурнах се назад.
Дали бях твърде малка аз,
a твърде едър — Голиат?
1924.
