The Mind
Crisis is sweet and, set the Heart
From The Single Hound (1914)
The Mind
Crisis is sweet and, set the Heart
Upon the hither side,
Has dowers of prospective
Surrendered by the Tried.
Inquire of the closing Rose
Which Rapture she preferred,
And she will tell you, sighing,
The transport of the Bud.
