Book excerpt: Excerpt from And Then Came Spring The herald of a Coming speeds as some Soft wheeling of white doves Against the budding wood; And in the middle groves Thine eyes are still and deep as seas where suns Make troth with star and star. And oh, how still the wood, And dread the Coming far! The House is rent; and mystery from Of mystery is there Still-born. The sun is blood Upon the eastern stair.
