After the Sun comes out
After the Sun comes out
How it alters the World
Waggons like messengers hurry about
Yesterday is old
All men meet as if
Each foreclosed a news
Fresh as a Cargo from Batize
Nature’s qualities

I sing of dews, of rains, and piece by […]...

From the height of a glacier I beheld half a world, the earthly width. Twice have drowned, thrice let knives […]...
