Audley Court	A
	-
	-
The Bull the Fleece are cramm d and not a room	B
For love or money Let us picnic there	C
At Audley Court	A
	-
I spoke while Audley feast	D
	-
Humm d like a hive all round the narrow quay	E
To Francis with a basket on his arm	F
To Francis just alighted from the boat	G
And breathing of the sea With all my heart	H
Said Francis Then we shoulder d thro the swarm	I
And rounded by the stillness of the beach	J
To where the bay runs up its latest horn	K
	-
We left the dying ebb that faintly lipp d	E
The flat red granite so by many a sweep	L
Of meadow smooth from aftermath we reach d	E
The griffin guarded gates and pass d thro all	M
The pillar d dusk of sounding sycamores	N
And cross d the garden to the gardener s lodge	O
With all its casements bedded and its walls	N
And chimneys muffled in the leafy vine	P
	-
	-
There on a slope of orchard Francis laid	Q
A damask napkin wrought with horse and hound	R
Brought out a dusky loaf that smelt of home	S
And half cut down a pasty costly made	Q
Where quail and pigeon lark and leveret lay	T
Like fossils of the rock with golden yolks	N
Imbedded and injellied last with these	N
A flask of cider from his father s vats	N
Prime which I knew and so we sat and eat	U
And talk d old matters over who was dead	V
Who married who was like to be and how	W
The races went and who would rent the hall	M
Then touch d upon the game how scarce it was	N
This season glancing thence discuss d the farm	F
The four field system and the price of grain	X
And struck upon the corn laws where we split	Y
And came again together on the king	Z
With heated faces till he laugh d aloud	A2
And while the blackbird on the pippin hung	B2
To hear him clapt his hand in mine and sang	C2
	-
	-
Oh who would fight and march and countermarch	J
Be shot for sixpence in a battle field	D2
And shovell d up into some bloody trench	J
Where no one knows but let me live my life	E2
Oh who would cast and balance at a desk	F2
Perch d like a crow upon a three legg d stool	G2
Till all his juice is dried and all his joints	N
Are full of chalk but let me live my life	E2
Who d serve the state for if I carved my name	H2
Upon the cliffs that guard my native land	I2
I might as well have traced it in the sands	N
The sea wastes all but let me live my life	E2
Oh who would love I woo d a woman once	N
But she was sharper than an eastern wind	J2
And all my heart turn d from her as a thorn	K
Turns from the sea but let me live my life	E2
	-
	-
He sang his song and I replied with mine	P
I found it in a volume all of songs	N
Knock d down to me when old Sir Robert s pride	K2
His books the more the pity so I said	V
Came to the hammer here in March and this	N
I set the words and added names I knew	L2
	-
	-
Sleep Ellen Aubrey sleep and dream of me	E
Sleep Ellen folded in thy sister s arm	F
And sleeping haply dream her arm is mine	P
Sleep Ellen folded in Emilia s arm	F
Emilia fairer than all else but thou	W
For thou art fairer than all else that is	N
Sleep breathing health and peace upon her breast	M2
Sleep breathing love and trust against her lip	N2
I go to night I come to morrow morn	K
I go but I return I would I were	O2
The pilot of the darkness and the dream	P2
Sleep Ellen Aubrey love and dream of me	E
	-
	-
So sang we each to either Francis Hale	Q2
The farmer s son who lived across the bay	T
My friend and I that having wherewithal	M
And in the fallow leisure of my life	E2
A rolling stone of here and everywhere	C
Did what I would but ere the night we rose	N
And saunter d home beneath a moon that just	R2
In crescent dimly rain d about the leaf	S2
Twilights of airy silver till we reach d	E
The limit of the hills and as we sank	T2
From rock to rock upon the glooming quay	E
The town was hush d beneath us lower down	U2
The bay was oily calm the harbour buoy	E
Sole star of phosphorescence in the calm	V2
With one green sparkle ever and anon	U2
Dipt by itself and we were glad at heart	H
