I went to turn the grass once after one	A
Who mowed it in the dew before the sun	A
	-
The dew was gone that made his blade so keen	B
Before I came to view the levelled scene	B
	-
I looked for him behind an isle of trees	C
I listened for his whetstone on the breeze	C
	-
But he had gone his way the grass all mown	B
And I must be as he had been alone	B
	-
'As all must be ' I said within my heart	D
'Whether they work together or apart '	-
	-
But as I said it swift there passed me by	E
On noiseless wing a bewildered butterfly	E
	-
Seeking with memories grown dim over night	F
Some resting flower of yesterday's delight	F
	-
And once I marked his flight go round and round	G
As where some flower lay withering on the ground	G
	-
And then he flew as far as eye could see	H
And then on tremulous wing came back to me	H
	-
I thought of questions that have no reply	E
And would have turned to toss the grass to dry	E
	-
But he turned first and led my eye to look	I
At a tall tuft of flowers beside a brook	I
	-
A leaping tongue of bloom the scythe had spared	J
Beside a reedy brook the scythe had bared	J
	-
I left my place to know them by their name	K
Finding them butterfly weed when I came	K
	-
The mower in the dew had loved them thus	L
By leaving them to flourish not for us	L
	-
Nor yet to draw one thought of ours to him	M
But from sheer morning gladness at the brim	M
	-
The butterfly and I had lit upon	B
Nevertheless a message from the dawn	B
	-
That made me hear the wakening birds around	G
And hear his long scythe whispering to the ground	G
	-
And feel a spirit kindred to my own	B
So that henceforth I worked no more alone	B
	-
But glad with him I worked as with his aid	N
And weary sought at noon with him the shade	N
	-
And dreaming as it were held brotherly speech	O
With one whose thought I had not hoped to reach	O
	-
'Men work together ' I told him from the heart	D
'Whether they work together or apart '	-
