| The Lost Sex written by William Henry Davies |
| From "A Poet's Pilgrimage", (1918) |
What, still another woman false,
Another honest man betrayed:
Then Heaven is made for only men,
And Hell for women made.
Now, with that false deceitful sex,
Henceforth I have for ever done;
Only one Judas lived a man,
But every woman's one.
Send down, O Lord, ten thousand Christs,
Each one as great as Christ Thy Son;
Not for all men, but just to make
One woman true, just one.
