Over my head his arm he flung
Against the world.

Two in the Campagna
In the morning of the world,
When earth was nigher heaven than now.

Pippa Passes
The day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hillside's dew-pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in his heaven
All's right with the world.
Creation's heir, the world, the world is mine!

The Traveller
