Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Five Books of Youth
Into the trembling air; In gardens when the sun is set; Now the white dove has found her mate; When voices sink in twilight silences; When noon is blazing on the town; The trees have never seemed so green; The green canal is mottled with falling leaves; They who have gone down the hill are far away; Where two roads meet amid the wood; The boy is late tonight binding his sheaves; O lovely shepherd Corydon, how far; O little shepherd boy, what sobs are those; The dull-eyed girl in bronze implores Apollo; The winter night is hard as glass; Chords, tremendous chords; I have known the lure of cities; We wove a fillet for thy head; Now the sick earth revives, and in the sun; The heavy bee burdened the golden clover; Of days and nights under the living vine; You seek to hurt me, foolish child, and why?; By these shall you remember
