Delight is as the flight mdashB
Or in the Ratio of itC
As the Schools would say mdashB
The Rainbow's way mdashB
A SkeinD
Flung colored after RainD
Would suit as brightE
Except that flightE
Were Aliment mdashB
-
If it would lastF
I asked the EastG
When that Bent StripeH
Struck up my childishB
Firmament mdashB
And I for gleeI
Took Rainbows as the common wayJ
And empty SkiesK
The Eccentricity mdashB
-
And so with Lives mdashB
And so with Butterflies mdashB
Seen magic mdash through the frightE
That they will cheat the sight mdashB
And Dower latitudes far on mdashB
Some sudden morn mdashB
Our portion mdash in the fashion mdashB
Done mdashB
