[& in the maple bush there hides the style]
& in the maple bush there hides the style& then the gate the awthorn stands before
Till close upon't you cannot see't the while
Tis like to Ivy creeping oer a door
& green as spring nor gap is seen before
& still the path leads on—till neath your hand
The gate waits to be opened—& then claps—the sower
Scatters the seeds of spring beneath his hand
& then the footpath tracks the elting land
