First Line: Or, where grey and cold the bent lands
Last Line: Wet with scottish rain.
Subject(s): Stevenson, Robert Louis (1850-1894)
OR, where grey and cold the bent lands
lean against a cloud,
in a garden by the Pentlands
secret, shy and proud,
there's a boy, who brings his nurse
-- Alison -- a chain
not of flowers, but of verse
wet with Scottish rain.
