Furtive converse, gliding glances, futile kiss

Of eyes that flitting round alight like birds,

And flee, and come again coquettishly;

Laughter, and lying ... and all flying away

To the strains that spin the frivolous swarm around.”

I also give an extract from his “Song of Running Water,” that is quite lovely.

“O forest! O sweet forest, thou invitest me to rest

And linger in thy shade with moss and shavegrass dressed,

Imprisoning me in swoon of soft caresses

That o’er me droop thy dense and leafy tresses.”
