Explanation:

Sitting in a porchway cool,

Fades the ruddy sunlight fast,

Twilight hastens on to rule--

Working hours are well night past

Shadows shoot across the lands;

But one sower lingers still,

Old, in rags, he patient stands,--

Looking on, I feel a thrill.

Black and high his silhouette

Dominates the furrows deep!

Now to sow the task is set,

soon shall come a time to reap.

Marches he along the plain,

To and fro, and scatters wide

from his hands the precious grain;

Moody, I, to see him stride.

Darkness deepens. Gone the light.

Now his gestures to mine eyes

Are august; and strange--his height

seems to touch the starry skies.
