Unfretted by a feeble thought,Future and past alike forgot,Drinking the dew contentedlyIn the cool grass.III.Look yonder where the clouds float; could we glideAs they, across the sky’s blue shoreless tide,What better were it than to dreamAcross yon lake and into this still stream?IV.Trees and a glimpse of sky!And the slow river, quiet as a pool!And thou and I—and thou and I—Kiss me! How soft the air is and how cool!
THE WANDER-LOVERS.
Down the world with Marna!That’s the life for me!Wandering with the wandering wind,Vagabond and unconfined!Roving with the roving rainIts unboundaried domain!Kith and kin of wander-kind,Children of the sea!
