I do not know which to prefer

B. Blacher

I do not know which to prefer,

The beauty of inflections

Or the beauty of innuendoes,

The blackbird whistling

Or just after.

1. Among twenty snowy mountains

2. I was of three minds

3. The blackbird whirled in the autumn winds

4. A man and a woman

5. I do not know which to prefer

6. Icicles filled the long window

7. O thin men of Haddam

8. I know noble accents

9. When the blackbird flew out of sight

10. At the sight of blackbirds

11. He rode over Connecticut

12. The river is moving

13. It was evening all afternoon
