With whirl of wild wet wings of storms set free:

In mirth of might and very joy to sing,

Uplifting voice untired, I sound one sole sweet string.

*  *  *  *  *

And many a theme I choose in wayfaring,

As one who passing plucks the sunflower

And ponders on her looks for love of her.

Yea, her flower-named whose fate was like a flower,

Being bright and brief and broken in an hour

And whirled of winds: and her whose awless hand
