Sharp shivers thro' the leafless bow'r;
When Phœbus gies a short-liv'd glow'r,

By a sure voice that can most sweetly tell,
How far off yet a glimpse of morning light,
And if to lure the truant back be well,

Thrush and blue-bird came North together.

Over the west side of the mountain,

I can see the eight o'clock light change from
charcoal to a faint gassy blue, inventing things

and that every so often the world is bound to shake.

For passing round the bottle with girls in rags or silk,
In country shawl or Paris cloak, had put my wits astray,
And what's the good of women, for all that they can say

My Sunshine

When I woke up and couldn't behold d light that the sun gives,

Human, superhuman, a bird's round eye,
Everything else withered and mummy-dead.
What great tomb-haunter sweeps the distant sky

In the dim hour 'twixt dreams and dawn,
Lone in the hush of sleeping things,
In some sky sanctuary withdrawn;

Rose-cheeked Adonis hied him to the chase;
Hunting he loved, but love he laughed to scorn.

And with the flowers she comes again.

And, climb we e'er so soft the spinney rails,
All stops as if no bird was anywhere.
