If I vacate that soothsome seat

Morning Express
Along the wind-swept platform, pinched and white,
The travellers stand in pools of wintry light,
Offering themselves to morn's long, slanting arrows.
The train's due; porters trundle laden barrows.

Had ta'en his last leave of the weeping morn,
Rose-cheeked Adonis hied him to the chase;
