An Acre of Grass

Picture and book remain,
An acre of green grass
For air and exercice,
Now strength of body goes;
Midnight, an old house
Where nohing stirs but a mouse.
My temptation is quiet.
Here at life's end
Neither loose imagination,
Nor the mill of the mind
Cosuming its rag and bone,
Can make he truth known.
