       “Yet, if you enter the woods
 Of a summer evening late,
 When the night-air cools on the trout-ringed pools 
Where the otter whistles his mate,
 (They fear not men in the woods, 
Because they see so few.)
 You will hear the beat of a horse’s feet,
 And the swish of a skirt in the dew, 
Steadily cantering through
 The misty solitudes ,
As though they perfectly knew 
The old lost road through the woods.
 But there is no road through the woods.”From R. Kipling’s ‘The Way through the Woods’#air
