Welcome Home Annotated

&nbspTo my native place
&nbsp Bent upon returning,
&nbsp Bosom all day burning
&nbsp To be where my race
Well were known, ‘twas much with me
There to dwell in amity.

&nbsp Folk had sought their beds,
&nbsp But I hailed: to view me
&nbsp Under the moon, out to me
&nbsp Several pushed their heads,
And to each I told my name,
Plans, and that therefrom I came.

&nbsp “Did you? . . . Ah, ‘tis true
&nbsp I once heard, back a long time,
&nbsp Here had spent his young time,
&nbsp Some such man as you . . .
Good-night.” The casement closed again,
And I was left in the frosty lane.
