WHITHER, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Wither leads this pathway, little one?
Last Line: To the white quiet of the churchyard fold.


WHITHER leads this pathway, little one? --
It runs just on and on, is never done.

Whither leads this pathway, mistress fair? --
That path to town, sir; to the village square.

Whither leads this pathway, father old? --
To the white quiet of the churchyard fold.
