“ Alas, the mountain-tops that look so green and fair !

I ’ve heard of fearful winds and darkness that come there;

The little brooks that seem all pastime and all play,

When they are angry, roar like lions for their prey.

“ Here thou need’st not dread the raven in the sky;

Night and day thou art safe,—our cottage is hard by.

Why bleat so after me ? Why pull so at thy chain ?

Sleep—and at break of day I will come to thee again! ”

—As homeward through the lane I went with lazy feet,

This song to myself did I oftentimes repeat;

And it seemed, as I retraced the ballad line by line,

That but half of it was hers, and one half of it was mine.
