“At night the passion came,
Like the fierce fiend of a distempered dream,
And shook him from his rest, and led him forth
Into the darkness.—”

Under that woven changeless roof of boughs:
The singing shook him out of his new ease.”

Then shook his lantern, saying, “He’s
‘Bout out!” and took the long way home
By road, a matter of several miles.”
