What mystery pervades a well | B |
That water lives so far | C |
A neighbor from another world | D |
Residing in a jar | C |
- | |
Whose limit none have ever seen | E |
But just his lid of glass | F |
Like looking every time you please | G |
In an abyss's face | H |
- | |
The grass does not appear afraid | I |
I often wonder he | J |
Can stand so close and look so bold | K |
At what is awe to me | J |
- | |
Related somehow they may be | J |
The sedge stands next the sea | J |
Where he is floorless | J |
And does no timidity betray | L |
- | |
But nature is a stranger yet | M |
The ones that cite her most | N |
Have never passed her haunted house | J |
Nor simplified her ghost | N |
- | |
To pity those that know her not | O |
Is helped by the regret | M |
That those who know her know her less | J |
The nearer her they get | M |
