 A few other little things; some in sprung rhythm, with various other experiments.

 All Life death does end and each day dies with sleep

 All trádes, their gear and tackle and trim.

 And my lament / Is cries countless, cries like dead letters sent / To dearest him that lives alas! away.

 Birds build - but not I build; no, but strain,/ Time's eunuch, and not breed one work that wakes. / Mine, O thou lord of life, send my roots rain.

 Glory be to God for dappled things for skies of couple-color as a brinded cow; For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim

 I caught this morning morning's minion, kingdom of daylight's dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon.

 I have desired to go / Where springs not fail, / To fields where flies no sharp and sided hail / And a few lilies blow,

 I see / The lost are like this, and their scourge to be / As I am mine, their sweating selves; but worse.

 Just for lack / Of answer the eagerer a-wanting Jessy or Jack / There God to aggrandize, God to glorify.

 Look at the stars! look, look up at the skies!/ O look at all the fire-folk sitting in the air! / The bright boroughs, the circle-citadels there!

 Nothing is so beautiful as spring -- when weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush; Thrush's eggs look little low heavens, and thrush through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring the ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.

 Now it is the virtue of design, pattern, or inscape to be distinctive and it is the vice of distinctiveness to become queer.

 O if we but knew what we do when we delve or hew -- hack and rack the growing green! Since country is so tender to touch, her being so slender, that like this sleek and seeing ball but a prick will make no eye at all, where we, even where we mean to mend her we end her, when we hew or delve: after-comers cannot guess the beauty been.

 O the mind, mind has mountains; cliffs of fall / Frightful, sheer, no-man-fathomed. Hold them cheap / May who ne'er hung there.
