"Votes for women!"
Was the cry,
Reaching upward
To the sky.
Crashing glass,
And flashing eye—
"Votes for women!"
Was the cry.

"Boats for women!"
Was the cry.
When the brave
Were come to die.
When the end
Was drawing nigh—
"Boats for women!"
Was the cry.

Life has many
Little jests
Insignificant tests.
Doubt and bitterness
Assail
But "Boats for women!"
Tells the tale.
