Not meaningless flurries like
Those that frequent the street
Subject to black hats in flight;
But a dancer shown complete
A
whirlwind
of muslin or
A furious scattering of spray
Raised by her knee, she for
Whom we live, to blow away
All, beyond her, mundane
Witty, drunken, motionless,
With her tutu, and refrain
From other mark of distress,
Unless a light-hearted draught of air
From her dress fans Whistler there.

variable
positions, nearer to or further from the implicit guiding thread, because of the verisimilitude the text imposes.

And with his infant son alone withdrew;
The forest's dreary wilds concealed his cell;

Therfore
I rede thee that thou get
A felowe that can wel concele
And kepe thy counsel, and wel hele,
To whom go shewe hoolly thyn herte,
Bothe wele and wo, Ioye and smerte: 2860
To gete comfort to him thou go,
And privily, bitween yow two,
Ye shal speke of that goodly thing,
That hath thyn herte in hir keping;
Of hir beaute and hir semblaunce, 2865
And of hir goodly countenaunce.

The gem in Eastern mine which slumbers,
Or ruddy gold 'twill not bestow;
'Twill not subdue the turban'd numbers,
Before the Prophet's shrine which bow;
Nor high through air on
friendly
pinions
Can bear thee swift to home and clan,
From mournful climes and strange dominions--
From South to North--my Talisman.

The youth of green
savannahs
spake,
And many an endless, endless lake,
With all its fairy crowds
Of islands, that together lie
As quietly as spots of sky
Among the evening clouds.
