soul"Hope" is the thing
with feathers -
That perches
in the -
And sings the
tune without the -
words And never stops - at all -
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And
sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -
I've heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest
Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
