Wind Elegy(W. E. W.)
Onlythe wind knows he is gone,Only the wind grieves,The sun shines, the fields are sown,Sparrows mate in the eaves;But I heard the wind in the pines he plantedAnd the hemlocks overhead,“His acres wake, for the year turns,But he is asleep,” it said.

Onlythe wind knows he is gone,
Only the wind grieves,
The sun shines, the fields are sown,
Sparrows mate in the eaves;
But I heard the wind in the pines he plantedAnd the hemlocks overhead,“His acres wake, for the year turns,But he is asleep,” it said.
But I heard the wind in the pines he planted
And the hemlocks overhead,
“His acres wake, for the year turns,
But he is asleep,” it said.
