Woman of the field,—by the sunset furrow,
Lone-faring woman, woman at the plough,
What of the harrow?—there so near their foreheads.
Can there be harvest, now?

‘My one Belovèd sowed here his body;
Under the furrows that open so red.
All that come home now, have we for our children.—
They will be wanting bread.’
