And knelt to coax about the wiry... (Read full poem)

The uses of sorrow I comprehend
Better and better at each year’s end.

Pages of Reinach.
Honey-red, closing the face-oval,

The rising moon has hid the stars;
Her level rays, like golden bars,
Lie on the landscape green,
With shadows brown between.

As if Diana, in her dreams,
Had dropt her silver bow
Upon the meadows low.
