Songs from The AdventurerCharles Erskine Scott Wood
And his day is a day in June.
Oh, what cares he for the old dead nest?—
October will give him a new red breast
And April the old, old tune.
O road, road, whither will you take me?
What is ’round the bend?
Will you make me or break me?
And will the day forsake me
Before I reach the end?
So far, so far, so far?
Is any knowing where you are going—
Through woods and up the hills to where is showing
On the world’s edge a star?
