    the young tree, drained of sap,
    the old tree, ready to drop,
    to lift from the rotting bed
    of leaves, the old
    crumbling pine tree stock.”

    “I was at work that morning. Someone came riding like mad

    “Morgan’s men are coming, Frau, they’re galloping on this way.”
    —Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840–1894)
