Watches winding. In an instant, Contract binding. Beneath the shadow Of a swooping owl, Steps the orphan Cloaked in a cowl. Bright the moon This early morn. By hooted calling, The day is born.

Infectious choosing. Submit my offer To yonder lady ether. Like a coin in cozy coffer, It clangs to pretty please her. 12/31/2O |
