...
Thou silly thing, off to thy daisies go!
Mine was not news for the child to know,
And Death--no ears hath, He hath supped where creep
Eyeless worms in hush of sleep;
Yet, when he smiles, the hand he draws
Athwart his grinning jaws--
Faintly the thin bones rattle, and--there, there!
Hearken how my bells in the air
Drive away care!...
