884

As Everywhere of Silver
With Ropes of Sand
To keep it from effacing
The Track called Land.

Apology for Her
Be rendered by the Bee—
Herself, without a Parliament
Apology for Me.

Unto a broken heart

Unto a broken heart
No other one may go
Without the high prerogative
Itself hath suffered too.

Could I—then—shut the door—
Lest my beseeching face—at last—
Rejected—be—of Her?

Woodpecker, The

His bill an auger is,
His head, a cap and frill.
He laboreth at every tree,--
A worm his utmost goal.

The Robin for the Crumb

864

The Robin for the Crumb
Returns no syllable
But long records the Lady's name
In Silver Chronicle.

If I can stop one heart from breaking, If I can ease one pain, Then my life will not have been in vain.
