I was angry with my friend |
|
I told my wrath, my wrath did end |
|
I was angry with my foe |
|
I told it not, my wrath did grow |
|
And I watered it in fears |
|
Night and morning with my tears |
|
And I sunned it with my smiles |
|
And with soft deceitful wiles |
|
And sometimes I |
|
See magpie |
|
And it grew both day and night |
|
Till it bore an apple bright |
|
And my foe beheld it shine |
|
And he knew that it was mine |
|
And into my garden stole |
|
When the night had veiled the pole |
|
In the morning, glad, I see |
|
My foe outstretched beneath the tree |
|
And sometimes I |
|
See magpie |
