W. H. DAVIES 151 THE TWO FLOCKS Where are you going to now, white sheep, Walking the green hill-side; To join that whiter flock on top, And share their pride?
Stay where you are, you silly sheep : When you arrive up there, You'll find that whiter flock on top Clouds in the air!
Yet much of his poetry springs from his wide knowledge and experience of life. An original defence of the solitary existence is seen in Death's Game, although possibly the grapes are sour.
Death can but play one game wit...h me — If I do live alone; He cannot strike me a foul blow' Through a beloved one.
Today he takes my neighbour's wife.
And leaves a little child To lie upon his breast and cry Like the Night-wind, so wild.
And every hour its voice is heard — Tell me where is she gone!
Death cannot play that game with me — If I do live alone.
The feather-weight pocket-volumes of verse that this poet puts forth, each containing a crop of tiny poems — have an excellent virtue — they are inter- esting, good companions for a day in the country.
