The traveller's words
Thread in the hand of a gentle woman;—
clothes on the back of a travellerHer stitches follow a secret secret seam;—
he fears a late late returnShe who speaks a word has a hasty heart;—
he tells news of three glorious new livesDJW
The roaming moaning small thing
A humane female within the convenient wire
A roaming pregnant small thing who is above clothes!
Just before going secretly to the thick crack
She was afraid of being delayed and being late in return to Italy
Who spoke an inch of her hasty mind?
She announced the possibility of three glorious springtimes
S&A
The roaming whir
What compassion is there in a woman's hand in the subway,
The body of the child on the gown?To stand before the deep secret crack
To fear the deathly slow return of ItalyWho measures the careless mind with a thumb?
Proper vengeance for three glorious lives.MAW
A gentle mother's hand provides the central thread
for the child to travel to the clothes of the highest classThis preparation provides the secret woven garment
which the child is not afraid to wearHe speaks his mind immediately
so he may announce three-fold joy.CMW
