Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
The Deceiver
By Helen Muckley
 
HE looks into my truthful face
  Beneath the rising moon,
And on his balalaika
  He plays a lying tune.
 
My lover is but playing—        5
  The real deceiver I,
Who look up with my truthful face
  And love him for his lie.
