circled: 11 3 The flowers I used to watch love are mostly dead, all the open gardens are trodden into dust but in crazy
nooks, aloft in the high fenced conservatories a thousand of the fairest dearest still swell safely. Pat, Pat, Shuffle Shuffle,
Crunch Crunch, I hear you all on the sidewalks sand beds, plodding away, hoping in righteousness heaven, saying your prayers
as best you can, Above the sand, beneath the fog fenced by the lake the marshes Heaven help you all give you ice granite
