Rioupéroux
- High and solemn mountains guard Rioupéroux,
- —Small untidy village where the river drives a mill:
- Frail as wood anemones, white and frail were you,
- And drooping a little, like the slender daffodil.
- Oh I will go to France again, and tramp the valley through,
- And I will change these gentle clothes for clog and corduroy,
- And work with the mill-hands of black Rioupéroux,
- And walk with you, and talk with you, like any other boy.
