" I said, "your cheeks how smooth and white, While all your woodsy kin are bossed and dark ! At eve, as I went singing through the park, Though Venus and Arcturus veiled their light, Your beckoning moonshafts, gleaming through the night, Drew eyes swift archery, a shining mark ! " Then spake the tree : " We, too, were dull when earth First knew us ; but when winter s shroud of snow Enwrapped us, and our brothers wailed, we laughed ! A god quick cried, O birches, Man needs mirth : For all time i...n this snowy splendor glow ! Who solves your secret, life s best wine has quaffed ! " 190 POEMS OF NATURE THE PINE-TREE [At Wissahissick Pond] pine-tree, thou art Circe of the wood ! My path thou hast entangled and betrayed ! I saw thee, and thy smile betokened aid, Thy balm seemed greater than all earthly good. Alas ! once lured beneath thy fragrant hood, Thy ruthless needles through my bosom played. Thy base enchantment now is open laid, But I am chained beyond all will and should. 1 pray thee, pine-tree, loose thy fragrant trap !
