    “Thee for my recitative,
    Thee in the driving storm even as now, the snow, the winter-day

    Thy black cylindric body, golden brass and silvery steel,”

    And the heart must pause to breathe,
    And love itself have rest.”

    And hushed me in her arms to rest,
    And on my cheek sweet kisses prest?
    My Mother.”
