The poem "The Sower" is from Dutt's A Sheaf Gleaned in French Fields (1876), and is a translation of a Victor Hugo poem. It describes an encounter between the poem's speaker, who sits within a "porchway," and the titular "sower," whom the speaker watches as he carries out his task of planting seeds.
