A DEAD LOCUST, by                    
First Line: Where alcis keeps her state, shrill grasshopper
Last Line: The dew-rich flowers of gold persephone.
Subject(s): Locusts


WHERE Alcis keeps her state, shrill grasshopper,
no more shall sun invest thy tiny glee.
Now only Pluto hears thy music stir
the dew-rich flowers of gold Persephone.
