And charging along like troops in a battle, In the poem,
All through the meadows, the horses and cattle. what seems
to charge
All of the sights of the hills and the plains, ? along like
troop troops in a
Fly as thick as driving rain; battle?
And ever again, in the wink of an eye,

Painted stations whistle by. How do the

meadow Here is a child who clambers and scrambles, ? hills and plains
look from the
All by himself and gathering brambles; speeding
Here is a tramp who stands and gazes; train?
And here is the green for stringing the daisies!

tramp Here is a cart runaway in the road
Lumping along with man and load; brambles

And here is a mill and there is a river;
Each a glimpse and gone forever!
