And frogs in the pools singing at night,
And wild plum-trees in tremulous white;

Will care at last when it is done.

Now in Venice, 'Storante al Giardino, I went early, Saw the
performers
come : him, her, the baby,
A quiet and respectable-tawdry trio ;
An hour later : a show of calves and spangles,
" Un e due fanno tre"
Night after night,
No change, no change of program, " Che I La donna e mobile"
