| Further than trees and hedges and green grass | B |
| Whitened by distance further than small pools | C |
| Held among fields and gardens further than | D |
| Haystacks and windmill sails and roofs and herds | E |
| The sea's last margin ceases at the sun | F |
| The sea has left us but the sun remains | G |
| Sometimes the country spreads aloof in tracts | H |
| Smooth from the harvest sometimes sky and land | I |
| Are shut from the square space the window leaves | J |
| By a dense crowd of trees stem behind stem | K |
| Passing across each other as we pass | B |
| Sometimes tall poplar wands stand white their heads | L |
| Outmeasuring the distant hills Sometimes | M |
| The ground has a deep greenness sometimes brown | N |
| In stubble and sometimes no ground at all | O |
| For the close strength of crops that stand unreaped | I |
| The water plots are sometimes all the sun's | P |
| Sometimes quite green through shadows filling them | K |
| Or islanded with growths of reeds or else | Q |
| Masked in grey dust like the wide face o' the fields | R |
| And still the swiftness lasts that to our speed | I |
| The trees seem shaken like a press of spears | S |
| There is some count of us folks travelling capped | I |
| Priesthood and lank hard featured soldiery | T |
| Females no women blouses Hunt and I | U |
| We are relayed at Amiens The steam | V |
| Snorts chafes and bridles like three hundred horse | W |
| And flings its dusky mane upon the air | T |
| Our company is thinned and lamps alight | I |
| But still there are the folks in travelling caps | X |
| No priesthood now but always soldiery | T |
| And babies to make up for show in noise | Y |
| Females no women blouses Hunt and I | U |
| Our windows at one side are shut for warmth | Z |
| Upon the other side a leaden sky | U |
| Hung in blank glare makes all the country dim | A2 |
| Which too seems bald and meagre be it truth | B2 |
| Or of the waxing darkness Here and there | T |
| The shade takes light where in thin patches stand | I |
| The unstirred dregs of water | T |
| Hunt can see | C2 |
| A moon he says but I am too far back | D2 |
| Still the same speed and thunder We are stopped | I |
| Again and speech tells clearer than in day | I |
| Hunt has just stretched to tell me that he fears | S |
| I and my note book may be taken for | T |
| The stuff that goes to make an missaire | T |
| De la perfide Let me abate my zeal | E2 |
| There is a stout gendarme within the coach | F2 |
| This cursed pitching is too bad My teeth | G2 |
| Jingle together in it and my legs | H2 |
| Which I got wet at Boulogne this good day | I |
| Wading for star fish are so chilled that I | U |
| Would don my coat were not these seats too hard | I |
| To spare it from beneath me and were not | I |
| The love of ease less than the love of sloth | I2 |
| Hunt has just told me it is nearly eight | I |
| We do not reach till half past ten Drat verse | J2 |
| And steam and Paris and the fins of Time | K2 |
| Marry for me look you I will go sleep | L2 |
| Most of them slept I could not held awake | M2 |
| By jolting clamour with shut eyes my head | I |
| Willing to nod and fancy itself vague | N2 |
| Only at Stations I looked round me when | O2 |
| Short silence paused among us and I felt | I |
| A creeping in my feet from abrupt calm | P2 |
| At such times Hunt would jerk himself and then | O2 |
| Tumble uncouthly forward in his sleep | L2 |
| This lasted near three hours The darkness now | Q2 |
| Stayeth behind us on the sullen road | I |
| And all this light is Paris Dieu merci | J2 |
| - | |
| PARIS Saturday Night | I |
| Send me dear William by return of post | I |
| As much as you can manage of that rhyme | K2 |
| Incurred at Ventnor Bothers and delays | J2 |
| Have still prevented me from copying this | J2 |
| Till now now that I do so let it be | C2 |
| Anticipative compensation | F |
| Num ro Rue Geoffroy Marie | C2 |
| Faubourg Montmartre pr s des Boulevards | J2 |
| Dear William labelled thus the thing will reach | R2 |
