A red cap sang in Bishop's wood	A
A lark o'er Golder's lane	B
As I the April pathway trod	C
Bound west for Willesden	B
	-
At foot each tiny blade grew big	D
And taller stood to hear	E
And every leaf on every twig	D
Was like a little ear	E
	-
As I too paused and both ways tried	F
To catch the rippling rain	B
So still a hare kept at my side	F
His tussock of disdain	B
	-
Behind me close I heard a step	G
A soft pit pat surprise	H
And looking round my eyes fell deep	I
Into sweet other eyes	H
	-
The eyes like wells where sun lies too	J
So clear and trustful brown	B
Without a bubble warning you	J
That here's a place to drown	B
	-
How many miles Her broken shoes	K
Had told of more than one	B
She answered like a dreaming Muse	K
I came from Islington	B
	-
So long a tramp Two gentle nods	L
Then seemed to lift a wing	M
And words fell soft as willow buds	N
I came to find the Spring	M
	-
A timid voice yet not afraid	O
In ways so sweet to roam	P
As it with honey bees had played	O
And could no more go home	P
	-
Her home I saw the human lair	Q
I heard the huckster's bawl	R
I stifled with the thickened air	Q
Of bickering mart and stall	R
	-
Without a tuppence for a ride	F
Her feet had set her free	S
Her rags that decency defied	F
Seemed new with liberty	S
	-
But she was frail Who would might note	T
The trail of hungering	M
That for an hour she had forgot	U
In wonder of the Spring	M
	-
So shriven by her joy she glowed	V
It seemed a sin to chat	W
A tea shop snuggled off the road	V
Why did I think of that	W
	-
Oh frail so frail I could have wept	X
But she was passing on	B
And I but muddled You'll accept	X
A penny for a bun	B
	-
Then up her little throat a spray	Y
Of rose climbed for it must	Z
A wilding lost till safe it lay	Y
Hid by her curls of rust	Z
	-
And I saw modesties at fence	A2
With pride that bore no name	B2
So old it was she knew not whence	A2
It sudden woke and came	B2
	-
But that which shone of all most clear	C2
Was startled sadder thought	D2
That I should give her back the fear	C2
Of life she had forgot	U
	-
And I blushed for the world we'd made	O
Putting God's hand aside	F
Till for the want of sun and shade	O
His little children died	F
	-
And blushed that I who every year	C2
With Spring went up and down	B
Must greet a soul that ached for her	E2
With penny for a bun	B
	-
Struck as a thief in holy place	F2
Whose sin upon him cries	H
I watched the flowers leave her face	F2
The song go from her eyes	H
	-
Then she sweet heart she saw my rout	G2
And of her charity	S
A hand of grace put softly out	G2
And took the coin from me	S
	-
A red cap sang in Bishop's wood	A
A lark o'er Golder's lane	B
But I alone still glooming stood	A
And April plucked in vain	B
	-
Till living words rang in my ears	H2
And sudden music played	O
Out of such sacred thirst as hers	I2
The world shall be remade	O
	-
Afar she turned her head and smiled	J2
As might have smiled the Spring	M
And humble as a wondering child	J2
I watched her vanishing	M
