 And then hopped sidewise to the Wall
 To let a Beetle pass –
 He glanced with rapid eyes
 That hurried all around –
 They looked like frightened Beads, I thought –
 He stirred his Velvet Head
 Like one in danger, Cautious,
 I offered him a Crumb

 Too silver for a seam –
 Or Butterflies, off Banks of Noon
 Leap, plashless as they swim.
