Part Two: Nature V |
| THE SUN just touched the morning; | |
| The morning, happy thing, | |
| Supposed that he had come to dwell, | |
| And life would be all spring. | |
| She felt herself supremer,— | 5 |
| A raised, ethereal thing; | |
| Henceforth for her what holiday! | |
| Meanwhile, her wheeling king | |
| Trailed slow along the orchards | |
| His haughty, spangled hems, | 10 |
| Leaving a new necessity,— | |
| The want of diadems! | |
| The morning fluttered, staggered, | |
| Felt feebly for her crown,— | |
| Her unanointed forehead | 15 |
| Henceforth her only one. |
