When smoke stood up from Ludlow,
And mist blew off from Teme,
And blithe afield to ploughing
Against the morning beam
I strode beside my team,
The blackbird in the coppice
Looked out to see me stride,
And hearkened as I whistled
The
tramping
team beside,
And fluted and replied:
"Lie down, lie down, young yeoman;
What use to rise and rise?

Behind her founder, Nysa's walls were rear'd;[481]

When the patient silence comes back,
And retires,

Rebuffed by a ribald song,
Wounded by vehement cries,
Fleeing again to the stars--
Ashamed of her sister the night;
Oh, then they steal home,
The blinded, the pitiful ones
With their gew-gaws still in their hands,
Reeling with odorous breath
And thick, coarse words on their tongues.

All smalling slowly to the gray sea line--
And each significant red smoke-shaft pales,
Keen sense of severance everywhere prevails,
Which shapes the late long tramp of mounting men
To seeming words that ask and ask again:
"How long, O striving Teutons, Slavs, and Gaels
Must your wroth reasonings trade on lives like these,
That are as puppets in a playing hand?

And breast to kiss with its dear warmth my breast,--

More than a red lip with a red tip
And more than a white leg with a white foot
Where then do we think we are?

Again ye'll

Beneath the plane, where the brook's murmuring
Moves the calm spirit, but
