About my fields in the broad sun	A
And blaze of noon there goeth one	A
Barefoot and robed in blue to scan	B
With the hard eye of the husbandman	B
My harvests and my cattle Her	C
When even puts the birds astir	C
And day has set in the great woods	D
We seek among her garden roods	D
With bells and cries in vain the while	E
Lamps plate and the decanter smile	E
On the forgotten board But she	F
Deaf blind and prone on face and knee	F
Forgets time family and feast	G
And digs like a demented beast	G
	-
Tall as a guardsman pale as the east at dawn	B
Who strides in strange apparel on the lawn	B
Rails for his breakfast routs his vassals out	H
Like boys escaped from school with song and shout	H
Kind and unkind his Maker's final freak	I
Part we deride the child part dread the antique	I
See where his gang like frogs among the dew	J
Crouch at their duty an unquiet crew	J
Adjust their staring kilts and their swift eyes	D
Turn still to him who sits to supervise	D
He in the midst perched on a fallen tree	F
Eyes them at labour and guitar on knee	F
Now ministers alarm now scatters joy	K
Now twangs a halting chord now tweaks a boy	K
Thorough in all my resolute vizier	F
Plays both the despot and the volunteer	F
Exacts with fines obedience to my laws	D
And for his music too exacts applause	D
	-
The Adorner of the uncomely those	D
Amidst whose tall battalions goes	D
Her pretty person out and in	B
All day with an endearing din	B
Of censure and encouragement	L
And when all else is tried in vain	B
See her sit down and weep again	B
She weeps to conquer	F
She varies on her grenadiers	D
From satire up to girlish tears	D
	-
Or rather to behold her when	B
She plies for me the unresting pen	B
And when the loud assault of squalls	D
Resounds upon the roof and walls	D
And the low thunder growls and I	M
Raise my dictating voice on high	M
	-
What glory for a boy of ten	B
Who now must three gigantic men	B
And two enormous dapple grey	F
New Zealand pack horses array	F
And lead and wisely resolute	N
Our day long business execute	N
In the far shore side town His soul	O
Glows in his bosom like a coal	O
His innocent eyes glitter again	B
And his hand trembles on the rein	B
Once he reviews his whole command	P
And chivalrously planting hand	P
On hip a borrowed attitude	Q
Rides off downhill into the wood	R
	-
I meanwhile in the populous house apart	S
Sit snugly chambered and my silent art	S
Uninterrupted unremitting ply	M
Before the dawn by morning lamplight by	M
The glow of smelting noon and when the sun	B
Dips past my westering hill and day is done	B
So bending still over my trade of words	D
I hear the morning and the evening birds	D
The morning and the evening stars behold	T
So there apart I sit as once of old	T
Napier in wizard Merchiston and my	M
Brown innocent aides in home and husbandry	F
Wonder askance What ails the boss they ask	U
Him richest of the rich an endless task	U
Before the earliest birds or servants stir	F
Calls and detains him daylong prisoner	F
He whose innumerable dollars hewed	T
This cleft in the boar and devil haunted wood	T
And bade therein from sun to seas and skies	D
His many windowed painted palace rise	D
Red roofed blue walled a rainbow on the hill	V
A wonder in the forest glade he still	V
	-
Unthinkable Aladdin dawn and dark	W
Scribbles and scribbles like a German clerk	X
We see the fact but tell O tell us why	M
My reverend washman and wise butler cry	M
Meanwhile at times the manifold	T
Imperishable perfumes of the past	T
And coloured pictures rise on me thick and fast	T
And I remember the white rime the loud	T
Lamplitten city shops and the changing crowd	T
And I remember home and the old time	Y
The winding river the white moving rhyme	Y
The autumn robin by the river side	T
That pipes in the grey eve	Z
	-
The old lady so they say but I	M
Admire your young vitality	T
Still brisk of foot still busy and keen	B
In and about and up and down	B
	-
I hear you pass with bustling feet	T
The long verandahs round and beat	T
Your bell and Lotu Lotu cry	M
Thus calling our queer company	T
In morning or in evening dim	A2
To prayers and the oft mangled hymn	A2
	-
All day you watch across the sky	M
The silent shining cloudlands ply	M
That huge as countries swift as birds	D
Beshade the isles by halves and thirds	D
Till each with battlemented crest	T
Stands anchored in the ensanguined west	T
An Alp enchanted All the day	T
You hear the exuberant wind at play	T
In vast unbroken voice uplift	T
In roaring tree round whistling clift	T
