26.

WE two boys together clinging, One the other never leaving, Up and down the roads going—North and South
excursions making, Power enjoying—elbows stretching—fingers clutch-
ing, Armed and fearless—eating, drinking, sleeping, lov-
ing, No law less than ourselves owning—sailing, soldier-
ing, thieving, threatening, Misers, menials, priests alarming—air breathing,
water drinking, on the turf or the sea-beach
dancing, With birds singing—With fishes swimming—With
trees branching and leafing, Cities wrenching, ease scorning, statutes mocking,
feebleness chasing, Fulfilling our foray.
