By the roadway all men share ;F leet of foot they pass us by. Yet their image lingers nigh. How may shadow truly stay When the substance goes its way f Bind it captive unto speech. Words and shadow, each with each Bid them blend into a song. So these shadows rest how longf THE ORCHESTRA PON the mountains morning side T he players, all in feathered coats, O ntree-tops swing, in thickets hide. And sound preliminary notes. The violinists here and there Tune all their many stringy unseen Long sloping tones are in the air, With pizzicato bits between.
