Poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay

Chorus

Give away her gowns,
Give away her shoes;
She has no more use
For her fragrant gowns;
Take them all down,
Blue, green, blue,
Lilac, pink, blue,
From their padded hangers;
She will dance no more
In her narrow shoes;
Sweep her narrow shoes
From the closet floor.

1. The Wagon Stopped before the House
2. Siege
3. Sometimes When I Am Wearied
4. The Cairn
5. I See So Clearly Now My Similar Years

Algernon Swinburne Chorus (" When the hounds of spring are on winter's traces")
