Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
Dirge
By Alfred Kreymborg
 
From “Toadstools”

  SHE came—
That wistful child—
On her way to red,
Deep red:
She came—        5
And they tried to tell him
She was Dawn.
She went—
That listless thing—
On her way to black,        10
Deep black:
She went—
And they tried to tell him
She was Night.
