Occupied by the elm; and, as its shade

Has crept clock-hand-wise till it ticks at fern

Five inches further to the South,—the door

Opens abruptly, some one enters sharp,

The elder man returned to wait the youth:

Never observes the room's new occupant,

Throws hat on table, stoops quick, elbow propped

Over the Album wide there, bends down brow

A cogitative minute, whistles shrill,

Then,—with a cheery-hopeless laugh-and-lose
