"To the Ladies" and "Eveline"

For this week's post, I'd like us to consider Joyce's short story "Eveline" and Lady Chudleigh's poem, "To the  Ladies."  Both texts deal with the expectations that others put on us, as well as the expectations we put on ourselves.    Please post your thoughts about what you think Lady Chudleigh's main idea is in her poem (you may wish to research her a bit and include some findings) and compare Chudleigh's poem to Eveline's struggle--and ultimate decision--in Joyce's story.

I look forward to reading your insights!
