LOWSHOT LIGHT
As I went eastward ere the sun had set,
His yellow light on bough by bough was bright.
His yellow light on bough by bough was bright.
And there, by buttercups beside the hill,
Below the elmtrees, cow by cow, was bright.
Below the elmtrees, cow by cow, was bright.
While, after heavy-headed horses' heels,
With slowly-rolling wheels, the plough was bright.
With slowly-rolling wheels, the plough was bright.
And up among the people, on the sides,
One lovely face, with sunny brow, was bright.
One lovely face, with sunny brow, was bright.
And aye, for that one face, the bough, and cow,
And plough, in my sweet fancy, now are bright.
And plough, in my sweet fancy, now are bright.
