Poems (Clark)/A Triolet

From Wikisource
"Then yonder must I speed,The bleacher in his needIs asking help of me;My shining drops must aidTill his cloth white is made;Much work have I, you see.
"Good-bye, my child, good-bye;No more I pause, but IMust hasten on my way.My journey long will be,Till I the ocean see;With you I must not stay."


A TRIOLET
'Tis a cold, windy night,But the stars are all out;They are many and bright,—'Tis a cold, windy night.Each clear, sparkling lightBids my heart banish doubt;'Tis a cold, windy night,But the stars are all out.
