Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Saturday Market The Farmer´s Bride Three Summers since I chose a maid, Too young maybe - but more´s to do At harvest-time than bide and woo. When us was wed she turned afraid of love and me and all things human; Like the shut of a winter´s day. Her smile went out, and ´twasn´t a woman - More like a little frightened fay. One night, in the Fall, she runned away. "Out ´mong the sheep, her be," they said, ´Should properly have been abed; But sure enough she wasn´t there Lying awake with her wide brown stare. So over seven-acre field and up-along across the down We chased her, flying like a hare Before our lanterns. To Church-Town All in a shiver and a scare We caught her, fetched her home at last And turned the key upon her, fast. She does the work about the house As well as most, but like a mouse: Happy enough to chat and play With birds and rabbits and such as they, So long as men-folk keep away. "Not near, not near!" her eyes beseech When one of us comes within reach. The women say that beasts in stall Look round like children at her call. I´ve hardly heard her speak at all. Shy as a leveret, swift as he, Straight and slight as a young larch tree, Sweet as the first wild violets, she, To her wild self. But what to me?
