At the forks of the road March lost
his way and loudly called his winds
that wandered in the crimson deeps
. and violet wales of April They cried
to the hills, that signaled them with
banners green and glorious and sent
the echoes of their voices back to the
opposing hills. And then did March,
with trumpet blast, command his
winds to storm the rosy battIements
and all the wreath-crowned captains
of the April armies; and the captains
fell before their might, and their ricn
raiment was rent and scattered over
thousand hills; and under a sky
serene and beautiful the soIdier-winds
