She Walketh Veiled And Sleeping Poem by Charlotte Perkins Stetson Gilman

She Walketh Veiled And Sleeping



SHE WALKETH veiled and sleeping,
For she knoweth not her power;
She obeyeth but the pleading
Of her heart, and the high leading
Of her soul, unto this hour.
Slow advancing, halting, creeping,
Comes the Woman to the hour!–
She walketh veiled and sleeping,
For she knoweth not her power.
