A Thought
When I look into a glass,
Myself's my only care;
But I look into a pool
For all the wonders there.
When I look into a glass,
I see a fool:
But I see a wise man
When I look into a pool.
When I look into a glass,
Myself's my only care;
But I look into a pool
For all the wonders there.
When I look into a glass,
I see a fool:
But I see a wise man
When I look into a pool.
First printed as 'When I look into a glass' in 'Form' in October 1921.
First published in 'The Hour of Magic' in 1922 by Jonathan Cape.
