Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Odes in Ohio, and Other Poems
What though another for the harvest gold The ready sickle hold, Or breathe the blossom, watch the fruit unfold Enough for him, indeed, That he should plant the tree, should sow the seed, And earn the reaper's guerdon, even if he Should not the reaper be Let him Who after a While, When I shall pass, may dwell In my sweet close, 'neath my dear roof instead.
