Before the ice is in the pools—

Before the ice is in the pools — Before the skaters go, Or any cheek at nightfall Is tarnished by the snow —

Before the fields have finished, Before the Christmas tree, Wonder upon wonder Will arrive to me!

What we touch the hems of On a summer's day — What is only walking Just a bridge away —

That which sings so — speaks so — When there's no one here — Will the frock I wept in Answer me to wear?
