AILWAY CARRIAGE
3. FROM A RA
taster than fairies faster that
Bridges and houses,
And, charging alon
All through the meado
faster than witches,
houses, hedges and ditches
e troops in a battle,
de meadows the horses and ca
or the hill and the plain
All of the sights of the hill and
Fly as thick as driving rain:
And ever again, in the wink of an
Painted stations whistle by.
All by himself and gathering or
Here is a tramp who stands and
ambers and scrambles,
gathering brambles;
no stands and gazes;
or stringing the daisies!
Here is a cart run away in the road
Jumping along with man and load;
And here is a mill and there is a nver,
Each a glimpse and gone for ever!
-R. L. Steven
