An Aged Yeoman

I mounted to a mount, 
By viewing the astonishing scenery, 
I mounted on a slippery hill, 
Hearing voices that is a peril.... 
I saw an aged yeoman working 
On his filed, 
Albeit his hard effort
lead him to weary.... 
I ran toward him 
To give him hands,
His smile told a sad story 
In the middle of the woods, 
I offered him some alms 
With proud sympathetic look... 
He refused it and 
Told his yonder story,
The peasant's land is the dot 
From his beloved wife...,
Left him and turned to soul 
Made a silent noise in his heart ;
He spent his rest of life 
With his wife's dot, 
Living in the memory of her 
For the rest of his life.... 
Which ended my proud to abysmal 
And created a great respect on him 
 - In that big Mount woods.
