She lay as if at playB
Her life had leaped away mdashC
Intending to return mdashC
But not so soon mdashC
-
Her merry Arms half dropt mdashC
As if for lull of sport mdashC
An instant had forgot mdashC
The Trick to start mdashC
-
Her dancing Eyes mdash ajar mdashC
As if their Owner wereD
Still sparkling throughE
For fun mdash at you mdashC
-
Her Morning at the door mdashC
Devising I am sure mdashC
To force her sleep mdashC
So light mdash so deep mdashC
