Raw labour of a raw-new land, Rough-hewn along the rougher ways And all unskilled am I to stand And call my -wares on either hand, Or draw to this and this the praise; And yet call at your command. You, you -who make me blessed and cursed, For that your young days are my youth :F rom you I learnt the best and worst That on your virgin knees was nursed That drew from you the utter truth And blurred it with a coarser thirst. Raw labour of a raw-new land bring it to the market-place. The buyers will not understand The death and life of fiercer brand That my words miss. But you shall trace This down the years with stronger hand.
