Great Regulars: The speaker relates how she would spend

her days in her home. She fantasizes with great pleasure and enjoyment that if she owned her own little home filled with sod for the fire, a working clock, and a cabinet filled with fine pottery, she would keep herself "busy all the day/Clearing and sweeping the heart and floor." Her pride of ownership shines through her dreams of keeping her possessions clean and tidy.
