C . M . C . THE well-They come to it and take Their cupful or their palmhl out of it. The well-Stones are around it, and an elder bush Is there a high rowan tree and so The well is marked. Who knows Whence come the waters Through what passages Beneath From what high tors Where forests are Forests dripping rain Branches pouring to the ground trunks, barks, roots, Letting the streamlets down through the dark earth The water flows, and in that secret flood Thats called a spring, that finds this little hollow. Who knows Whence come the waters that fill cup and palm Sweetheart and comrade, I give you The waters marches and the forests bound, The valley-filling cloud, the trees that set The rains beneath their roots, out of this well. R E M I N I S C E N C E The Swallows sang ALIEN to us are Your fields, and your cotes, and your glebes Secret our nests are Although they be built in your eaves Un-eaten by us are The grains that grow in your fields. The Weathercock on the barn answered Not alien to ye are The powers of un-earthbound beings Their curse ye would bring On our cotes, and our glebes, and our fields, If aught should befall The brood that is bred in the eaves. The Swallows answered If aught should befall Our brood thats not travelled the seas, Your temples would fall, And blood ye would milk from your beeves Against them the curse we would bring Of un-earthbound beings I1 I saw the wind to-day I saw it in the pane Of glass upon the wall A moving thing- twas like No bird with widening wing, No mouse that runs along The meal bag under the beam.

Product Description
Webster's edition of this classic is organized to expose the reader to a maximum number of synonyms and antonyms for difficult and often ambiguous English words that are encountered in other works of literature, conversation, or academic examinations. Extremely rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions are given lower priority in the notes compared to words which are ¿difficult, and often encountered¿ in examinations. Rather than supply a single synonym, many areprovided for a variety of meanings, allowing readers to better grasp the ambiguity of the English language, and avoid using the notes as a pure crutch. Having the reader decipher a word's meaning within context serves to improve vocabulary retention and understanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on previous pages. If a difficult word is not noted on a page, chances are that it has been highlighted on a previous page. A more complete thesaurus is supplied at the end of the book; synonyms and antonyms are extracted from Webster's Online Dictionary.
