Her soul is like a wolf that stands	A
Where sunlight falls between the trees	B
Of a sparse forest's leafless edge	C
When Spring's first magic moveth these	B
	-
Her soul is like a little brook	D
Thin edged with ice against the leaves	E
Where the wolf drinks and is alone	F
And where the woodbine interweaves	E
	-
A bank late covered by the snow	G
But lighted by the frozen North	H
Her soul is like a little plot	I
That one white blossom bringeth forth	H
	-
Her soul is slim like silver slips	E
And straight like flags beside a stream	J
Her soul is like a shape that moves	E
And changes in a wonder dream	J
	-
Who would pursue her clasps a cloud	K
And taketh sorrow for his zeal	L
Memory shall sing him many songs	E
While bound upon the torture wheel	L
	-
Her soul is like a wolf that glides	E
By moonlight o'er a phantom ridge	M
Her face is like a light that runs	E
Beneath the shadow of a bridge	M
	-
Her voice is like a woodland cry	N
Heard in a summer's desolate hour	O
Her eyes are dim her lips are faint	P
And tinctured like the cuckoo flower	O
	-
Her little breasts are like the buds	E
Of tulips in a place forlorn	Q
Her soul is like a mandrake bloom	R
Standing against the crimson moon	S
	-
Her dream is like the fenny snake's	E
That warms him in the noonday's fire	O
She hath no thought nor any hope	T
Save of herself and her desire	O
	-
She is not life she is not death	U
She is not fear or joy or grief	V
Her soul is like a quiet sea	E
Beneath a ruin haunted reef	V
	-
She is the shape the sailor sees	E
That slips the rock without a sound	W
She is the soul that comes and goes	E
And leaves no mark yet makes a wound	W
	-
She is the soul that hunts and flies	E
She is a world wide mist of care	X
She is the restlessness of life	Y
Its rapture and despair	X
