SONG by ADELAIDE CRAPSEY

Poet Analysis

First Line: I MAKE MY SHROUD, BUT NO ONE KNOWS
Last Line: SO SHIMMERING FINE IT IS AND FAIR.
Subject(s): SHROUDS;
I make my shroud, but no one knows --
So shimmering fine it is and fair,
With stitches set in even rows,
I make my shroud, but no one knows.

In door-way where the lilac blows,
Humming a little wandering air,
I make my shroud and no one knows,
So shimmering fine it is and fair.
