Part Five: The Single Hound

“MORNING” means “Milking” to the Farmer

Dawn to the Apennines—

Dice to the Maid.

“Morning” means just Chance to the Lover—

Just Revelation to the Beloved.

Epicures date a breakfast by it!

Heroes a battle,

The Miller a flood,

Faint-going eyes their lapse

From sighing,

Faith, the Experiment of our Lord!
