Selected Poems of Robert Frost (Rinehart editions) Book

THE PLOUGHMAN UNDER the long fell's stony eaves The ploughman, going up and down, Ridge after ridge man's tide-mark leaves, And turns the hard grey soil to brown. Striding, he measures out the earth In lines of life, to rain and sun; And every year that comes to birth Sees him still striding on and on. The seasons change, and then return ; Yet still, in blind, unsparing ways, However I may shrink or yearn, The ploughman measures out my days. His acre brought forth roots last year; This year it bears the gleamy grain ; Next Spring shall seedling grass appear: Then roots and corn and grass again. Five times the young corn's pallid green I have seen spread and change and thrill; Five times the reapers I have seen Go creeping up the far-off hill: And, as the unknowing ploughman climbs Slowly and inveterately, I wonder long how many times The corn will spring again for me. .1Table of Contents Contents; JOHN DRINKWATER; My Estate On Reading the MS of Dorothy Words; worth's Journals June Dance ; EDWARD EASTAWAY; Old Man; Snow ; The Cuckoo ; The New House ; Wind and Mist ; The Unknown ; The Word ; After Rain; Aspens ; A Private ; Sedge Warblers ,; For These ; Roads ; The Source ; Lovers ; Beauty ; The Brook ; Song ; vi; Contents; vii; ROBERT FROST Christmas Trees A Girl's Garden The Line Gang Pea Brush The Oven Bird Hyla Brook ; WILFRID WILSON GIBSON Daffodils The Plough The Drove-Road In the Meadow The Platelayer Makeshifts; T STURGE MOORE; Micah ; R C TREVELYAN The Pearl TreeAbout the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historicallyRead More
