The great purple-yellow wings
Rise up behind the little red and green man;
The purple-yellow wings fan him,
He dabbles his feet in cool green.
Off with the green sheath,
And there are two spindly legs.
"Heigho!" sighs Minna.
"Heigho!" sighs Stella.
There is not a flutter of wind,
And the sun is directly overhead.

Walk the little girls.
Their hats, round and yellow like cheeses,
Are dangling by the ribbons.

Of Proserpine, when Hell, obscure and hot,
Doth her resign; and where her tender hands

...ck me: It's blood, I tell you, it's blood.
It's gleaming wet in the grasses; it's glist'ning warm in the wheat;
 It dabbles the ferns and the clover; it brims in an angry flood;
It leaps to the startled heavens; it smothers the sun; it cries
 With scarlet voices of triumph from blossom and bough and blade.
See the bright horror of it! It's roaring out of the skies,
 And the whole red world is a-welter. . . . Oh God! I'm afraid! I'm afraid!
