A poem by Gerard Manley Hopkins

Denis, Whose Motionable, Alert, Most Vaulting Wit

________________________________________________
Title:     Denis, Whose Motionable, Alert, Most Vaulting Wit
Author: Gerard Manley Hopkins [More Titles by Hopkins]

DENIS, whose motionable, alert, most vaulting wit
Caps occasion with an intellectual fit.
Yet Arthur is a Bowman: his three-heeled timber'll hit
The bald and bold blinking gold when all's done
Right rooting in the bare butt's wincing navel in the sight of the sun.
. . . . . . . .







[The end]
Gerard Manley Hopkins's poem: Denis, Whose Motionable, Alert, Most Vaulting Wit
