The starr'd leaves are silently turned,
And the mooned leaves;
And as they are turned, fall the shadows of life and death.
The starr'd leaves are silently turned,
And the mooned leaves;
And as they are turned, fall the shadows of life and death.
I tell you this, young man, so that your expectations of life
Will not be too great.
Now I am still, whose life was mazed with motion.
