No life in earth or air or sky	A
The sunbeams broken silently	B
On the bared rocks around me lie	A
	-
Cold rocks with half warmed lichens scarred	C
And scales of moss and scarce a yard	C
Away one long strip yellow barred	C
	-
Lost in a cleft 'Tis but a stride	D
To reach it thrust its roots aside	D
And lift it on thy stick astride	D
	-
Yet stay That moment is thy grace	E
For round thee thrilling air and space	E
A chattering terror fills the place	E
	-
A sound as of dry bones that stir	F
In the dead Valley By yon fir	F
The locust stops its noonday whir	F
	-
The wild bird hears smote with the sound	G
As if by bullet brought to ground	G
On broken wing dips wheeling round	G
	-
The hare transfixed with trembling lip	H
Halts breathless on pulsating hip	H
And palsied tread and heels that slip	H
	-
Enough old friend 'tis thou Forget	I
My heedless foot nor longer fret	I
The peace with thy grim castanet	I
	-
I know thee Yes Thou mayst forego	J
That lifted crest the measured blow	J
Beyond which thy pride scorns to go	J
	-
Or yet retract For me no spell	K
Lights those slit orbs where some think dwell	K
Machicolated fires of hell	K
	-
I only know thee humble bold	I
Haughty with miseries untold	I
And the old Curse that left thee cold	I
	-
And drove thee ever to the sun	L
On blistering rocks nor made thee shun	L
Our cabin's hearth when day was done	L
	-
And the spent ashes warmed thee best	I
We knew thee silent joyless guest	I
Of our rude ingle E'en thy quest	I
	-
Of the rare milk bowl seemed to be	B
Naught but a brother's poverty	B
And Spartan taste that kept thee free	B
	-
From lust and rapine Thou whose fame	M
Searchest the grass with tongue of flame	M
Making all creatures seem thy game	M
	-
When the whole woods before thee run	L
Asked but when all was said and done	L
To lie untrodden in the sun	L
