    In all his tuneful turning so few and such morning songs
    Before the children green and golden
    Follow him out of grace.”

    you are married I can only guess
    in my piecemeal fashion. I grow old on my bitterness.”

    “Hast not thy share? On winged feet,
    Lo! it rushes thee to meet;
    And all that Nature made thy own,
    Floating in air or pent in stone,
    Will rive the hills and swim the sea,
    And, like thy shadow, follow thee.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
