The Poet and the Peasant
one whose life has been heart to heart with Nature. The
finished art of the line did not blind me to that fact. To
use a somewhat homely comparison, it was as if a wild,
free child of the woods and fields were to don the garb
of fashion and walk down Broadway. Beneath the
apparel the man would show."
"Thanks," said Conant. "I suppose the check will
be round on Thursday, as usual."
The morals of this story have somehow gotten mixed.
You can take your choice of "Stay on the Farm" or
"Don't Write Poetry."
