toward     the  highway's     side�察   �There's   a  sorry   figure   of  fun�察─ �jested  he�察�

;Well�察�Sirrah� �move back�察�there is scarce room to ride。; 

     ;Good Sirs�察�Kind Sirs�察─�begged the crestfallen fool�察               �I pray of your 

courtesy speech with you�察�I'm for yonder town�察�and have no horse to ride�察�

Have you never a charger will carry two�拭─�

     Then the company halted and laughed out loud。                ;Was such a request 

ever   made   to   a   knight�拭─   �And   where   are   your   legs�察─  �asked   one�察   �if   you 

start�察  �You may be inside the town gates to´night。; 

     ;'T is a lazy fellow�察�let him alone�察        �They've no room in the town for 

such idlers as he。; But one bent from his saddle and said�察 �My man�察                   �Art 

thou not ashamed to beg charity� �

     ;Thou art well set up�察�and thy legs are strong�察            �But it much misgives 

me lest thou'rt a fool�察�For beggars get only a beggar's crust�察               �Wise men 

are reared in a different school。; 

     Then   they   clattered   away   in   the   dust   and   the   wind�察�And   the   fool 

slunk   back   to   his   lonely   stone�察  �He   began   to   see   that   the   man   who   asks 

Must likewise give and not ask alone。 

     Purple    tree´shadows      crept  over   the  road�察   �The    level  sun   flung   an 

orange light�察�And the fool laid his head on the hard�察�gray stone               And wept 

as he realized advancing night。 

     A great�察�round moon rose over a hill            And the steady wind blew yet 

more cool�察�And   crouched on   a   stone a   wayfarer   sobbed�察          �For   at last he 

knew he was only a fool。 



                                  The Green Bowl 



     This little bowl is like a mossy pool In a Spring wood�察�where dogtooth 

violets   grow   Nodding in   chequered   sunshine of   the   trees�察�A  quiet   place�察�

still�察�with the sound of birds�察�Where�察�though unseen�察�is heard the endless 

song And murmur of the never resting sea。 'T was winter�察�Roger�察�when you 

made this cup�察�But coming Spring guided your eager hand And round the 

edge you fashioned young green leaves�察�A proper chalice made to hold the 

shy And little flowers of the woods。           And here They will forget their sad 

uprooting�察�lost In pleasure that this circle of bright leaves Should be their 

setting�察�once   more   they  will   dream They  hear   winds   wandering   through 

lofty trees And see the sun smiling between the leaves。

                                   Hora Stellatrix 



     The stars   hang   thick in the  apple  tree�察�The  south   wind   smells of   the 

pungent   sea�察  �Gold   tulip   cups   are   heavy   with   dew。   The   night's   for   you�察�

Sweetheart�察�for you� �Starfire rains from the vaulted blue。 

     Listen�    �The dancing of unseen leaves。 A drowsy swallow stirs in the 

eaves。 Only a maiden is sorrowing。 'T is night and spring�察�Sweetheart�察�and 

spring� �Starfire lights your heart's blossoming。 

     In   the intimate  dark there's never  an   ear�察�Though   the  tulips stand   on 

tiptoe   to   hear�察  �So   give�察  �ripe   fruit   must   shrivel   or   fall。 As   you   are   mine�察�

Sweetheart�察�give all� �Starfire sparkles�察�your coronal。 



                                       Fragment 



     What is poetry�拭      �Is it a mosaic     Of coloured stones which curiously 

are wrought       Into a pattern�拭    �Rather glass that's taught By patient labor 

any hue to take And glowing with a sumptuous splendor�察�make                    Beauty a 

thing    of  awe�察  �where    sunbeams     caught�察   �Transmuted       fall  in  sheafs  of 

rainbows fraught With storied meaning for religion's sake。 



                                      Loon Point 



     Softly the water ripples        Against the canoe's curving side�察�Softly the 

birch trees rustle     Flinging over us branches wide。 

     Softly  the   moon   glints   and   glistens   As   the   water   takes   and   leaves�察�

Like golden ears of corn        Which fall from loose´bound sheaves�察�

     Or like the snow´white petals          Which drop from an overblown rose�察�

When Summer ripens to Autumn              And the freighted year must close。 

     From the shore come the scents of a garden�察              �And between a gap in

the trees A proud white statue glimmers          In cold�察�disdainful ease。 

     The child of a southern people�察         �The thought of an alien race�察�What 

does she in this pale�察�northern garden�察       �How reconcile it with her grace�拭�

    But the moon in her wayward beauty               Is ever and always the same�察�

As lovely as when upon Latmos            She watched till Endymion came。 

     Through     the  water   the  moon    writes   her  legends    In   light�察 �on  the 

smooth�察�wet sand�察�They endure for a moment�察�and vanish�察                  �And no one 

may understand。 

    All round us the secret of Nature         Is telling itself to our sight�察�We may 

guess at her meaning but never         Can know the full mystery of night。 

    But her power of enchantment is on us�察            �We bow to the spell which 

she weaves�察�Made up of the murmur of waves               And the manifold whisper 

of leaves。 



                                       Summer 



     Some men there are who find in nature all Their inspiration�察�hers the 

sympathy Which spurs them on to any great endeavor�察�To them the fields 

and   woods   are   closest   friends�察�And   they   hold   dear   communion   with   the 

hills�察�The voice of waters soothes them with its fall�察�And the great winds 

bring healing in their sound。 To them a city is a prison house Where pent 

up human forces labour and strive�察�Where beauty dwells not�察�driven forth 

by man�察�But where in winter they must live until Summer gives back the 

spaces of the hills。 To me it is not so。       I love the earth And all the gifts of 

her so lavish hand�此�Sunshine and flowers�察�rivers and rushing winds�察�Thick 

branches   swaying   in   a   winter   storm�察�And   moonlight   playing   in   a   boat's 

wide wake�察�But more than these�察�and much�察�ah�察�how much more�察�I love the 

very human   heart of   man。 Above   me spreads the hot�察�blue mid´day  sky�察�

Far down the hillside lies the sleeping lake Lazily reflecting back the sun�察�

And scarcely ruffled by the little breeze Which wanders idly through the 

nodding ferns。 The blue crest of the distant mountain�察�tops The green crest 

of the hill on which I sit�察�And it is summer�察�glorious�察�deep´toned summer�察�

The very crown of nature's changing year When all her surging life is at its

full。 To me alone it is a time of pause�察�A void and silent space between two 

worlds�察�When inspiration lags�察�and feeling sleeps�察�Gathering strength for 

efforts   yet   to   come。   For   life   alone is   creator of   life�察�And   closest   contact 

with the human world Is like a lantern shining in the night To light me to a 

knowledge of   myself。   I   love   the   vivid   life   of   winter   months   In   constant 

intercourse with human   minds�察�When every new experience is gain And 

on   all   sides   we   feel   the   great   world's   heart�察  �The   pulse   and   throb   of   life 

which makes us men� �

     As for a moment he stands�察�in hardy masculine beauty�察�Poised on the 

fircrested   rock�察 �over the   pool   which   below  him   Gleams   in   the   wavering 

sunlight�察�waiting the shock of his plunging。 So for a moment I stand�察�my 

feet planted firm in the present�察�Eagerly scanning the future which is so 

soon to possess me。 



                                         The Way 



     At   first   a   mere   thread   of   a   footpath   half   blotted   out   by   the   grasses 

Sweeping triumphant across it�察�it wound between hedges of roses Whose 

blossoms were poised above leaves as pond lilies float on the water�察�While 

hidden by bloom in a hawthorn a bird filled the morning with singing。 

     It   widened   a   highway�察  �majestic�察  �stretching   ever   to   distant   horizons�察�

Where      shadows     of   tree´branches     wavered�察    �vague    outlines   invaded     by 

sunshine�察�No sound but the wind as it whispered the secrets of earth to the 

flowers�察  �And   the   hum   of   the   yellow   bees�察  �honey´laden   and   dusty   with 

pollen。 And   Summer   said�察  �Come�察  �follow  onward�察 �with no   thought   save 

the   longing      to   wander�察  �The   wind�察  �and   the   bees�察  �and   the   flowers�察  �all 

singing     the  great   song      of   Nature�察   �Are    minstrels    of  change    and   of 

promise�察�they herald the joy of the Future。;

     Later   the   solitude   vanished�察  �confused   and   distracted   the   road   Where 

many  were   seeking   and   jostling。       Left behind   were   the   trees       and   the 

flowers�察     �The    half´realized     beauty    of   quiet�察  �the   sacred     unconscious 

communing。 And now he is come to a river�察�a line of gray�察�sullen water�察�

Not blue and splashing�察�but dark�察�rolling somberly on to the ocean。 But on 

the far side is a city whose windows flame gold in the sunset。 It lies fair 

and shining before him�察�a gem set betwixt sky and water�察�And spanning
