That wash the far dark Oregon,

And ever leaning, urging on,

And standing up in restless ease,

He seem'd as lithe and free and tall

And restless as the boughs that stir

Perpetual topt poplar trees.

And one, that one, had eyes to teach

The art of love, and tongue to preach

Life's hard and sober homilies;

And yet his eager hands, his speech,
