Their bars of animal content?

Nay, here live men unvexed, untried—

I mused. Yet pacing Roosevelt street

In idle humour I espied

A village man and woman meet,

And pass with never word or sign—

So strange in neighbour-folk whose feet

Haunt the same fields in rain and shine

That, curious eyed, in either face,

In curve of lip, or graven line,
