LIFE AND SONG.

II life We're caught by IA clarinet,
And wild heart, thrubbing in the reed,
Should thrill its Joy and trin its fret
And utter its love in loves own deed;
Then would this breathing clarinet,
Type what would that might be,
For none of the poets ever yet
Has wholly lived his minstrelsy,
Or wholly sung his true, true thought
Or utterly bodied forth his life,
Or made what God made when he wrought
One perfect self of man and wife;
Or lived and sung, that life and song
Might each express the others all,
Careless if life or art We're long,
Since both We're one, to stand or fall.
So that the wonder strucI, the crowd,
Who shouted ii about the land.
His song was only living aloud;
His work was a singing with his handi
