4. I have visited again      That corner of the earth where I spent two          Unnoticed, exiled years. Ten years have passed      Since then, and many things have changed for me,      And I have changed too, obedient to life’s law—      But now that I am here again, the past      Has flown out eagerly to embrace me, claim me,      And it seems that only yesterday I wandered       Within these groves. 
Was barren, naked, a thicket of young pines 
  Has sprouted; like green children round the shadows
Of the two neighboring pines.
