From the bay window, the rabbit approaches the crouching boy near Easter, then refuses easy closeness and choses a more exact relation built from distance, pattern, and watchfulness.
The science book subtly changes the earlier innocence of the scene, making the boy seem observational as well as childlike. The rabbit comes close enough to invite touch, then breaks that expectation by choosing a pattern instead of contact. What matters is not capture or affection but the form of attention passing between them.

'From The Bay Window' watches, near Easter, 'the boy with the science book' chase a rabbit 'along the still snow / Hill' and stop 'Just At THE SLOPE.' He crouches 'on his haunches / and begins to bid without cumming / in his mammor,' and the rabbit, approaching 'empty hands,' refuses contact: rather than 'stretching to the boys palms,' it 'choses a pattern / with distance in her senses.' The lyric prizes the form of attention over capture. This reading is held lightly because the page mixes typed text with handwritten revisions on a 'mixed' band.
