First Line: I found the phrase [or, word] to every thought
Last Line: Or noon in mazarin?
Variant Title(s): Poem: 581;poem: 436
I found the phrase to every thought
I ever had, but one;
And that defies me, -- as a hand
Did try to chalk the sun
To races nurtured in the dark; --
How would your own begin?
Can blaze be done in cochineal,
Or noon in mazarin?
