an



indeed certain of the brook but
no one

the boys assembled

at the sound of

the brook but no one

the boys assembled
at the schoolhouse

and strolled idly about the room

and a fine gentleman clapping his
burnished wings and
crowing in the gloom like some
gigantic monster ready to give him
an opportunity
