50
THE RAIN AND THE DEW.
“Thou hast fallen,” said the Dewdrop
To a sister drop of rain,
“But wilt thou, wedded with the dust,
In banishment remain?”
To a sister drop of rain,
“But wilt thou, wedded with the dust,
In banishment remain?”
“Nay, Dewdrop, but anon with thee—
The lowlier born than I—
Uplifted shall I seek again
My native home, the sky.”
The lowlier born than I—
Uplifted shall I seek again
My native home, the sky.”
