They, and the wilding families,—

Windflower, violet, may,—

They rise from the long, long dark

To the ecstasy of day.

We, scattering troops and kindreds,

From out of the stars wind-blown

To this wayside corner of space,

This world that we call our own,—

We, of the hedge-rows of Time,

We, too, shall divide the sod,
