ROBERT FROST

From a hired hand who finally comes home, to a man who will never walk the New England woods again for his beloved native orchids, Robert Frost paints his metaphors into the lives of country people in a rich and formidable land.

These 17 pieces are from Robert Frost’s modernist masterpiece, “North of Boston” first published in 1914.

TEXT (Project Gutenberg edition):
THE PASTURE

       I'm going out to clean the pasture spring;
       I'll only stop to rake the leaves away
       (And wait to watch the water clear, I may):
       I sha'n't be gone long.--You come too.
       I'm going out to fetch the little calf
       That's standing by the mother. It's so young,
       It totters when she licks it with her tongue.
       I sha'n't be gone long.--You come too.
