THAT SHADOW MY LIKENESS.
|
THAT shadow my likeness that goes to and fro seeking a liveli-
hood, chattering, chaffering, |
|
How often I find myself standing and looking at it where it
flits, |
| How often I question and doubt whether that is really me; |
| But among my lovers and caroling these songs, |
| O I never doubt whether that is really me. |
