A weed-grown slope, whereon the rain / Has washed the brown rocks bare, / Leads tangled from a lonely lane / Down to a creek's broad stair / Of stone, that, through the solitude, / Winds onward to a quiet wood.
An intermittent roof of shade / The beech above it throws; / Along its steps a balustrade / Of beauty builds the rose; / In which, a stately lamp of green / At intervals the cedar's seen.
