STRAY BIRDS 266 sung the songs of thy day.

In the evening let me carry thy lamp through the stormy path.

267 not ask thee into the house.

Come into my infinite loneliness, my Lover.

268 belongs to life as birth does.

The walk is in the raising of the foot as in the laying of it down.

269 learnt the simple meaning of thy whispers in flowers and sunshine—teach me to know thy words in pain and death. [76]
