Opus 4

No sun - no moon!

No morn - no noon -

No dawn - no dusk - no proper time of day -

No sky - no earthly view -

No distance looking blue -

No road - no street - no "t'other side the way" -

No end to any Row -

No indications where the Crescents go -

No top to any steeple -

No recognitions of familiar people -

No courtesies for showing 'em -

No knowing 'em! -

No travelling at all - no locomotion,

No inkling of the way - no notion -

"No go" - by land or ocean -

No mail - no post -

No news fom any foreign coast -

No Park - no Ring - no afternoon gentility -

No company - no nobility -

No warmth, no cheerfilness, no healthful ease,

No comfortable feel in any member -

No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,

No fruits, no flow'rs, no leaves, no birds,

November!
