Janet implored us, ‘Wake her from her sleep!’

Was the forgetful kingdom of death.”

For the tireless heart within the little
Lady with rod that made them rise
From their noon apple-dreams, and scuttle
Goose-fashion under the skies!”

Dragging his infected wound homeward
To sit tonight with the warm children
Naming the pretty kings of France.”
