Dear Lisa Your quote is from the Chapter VII heading in "The Naulahka", and also appears in "Songs from Books". It begins: 'There is pleasure in the wet, wet clay / When the artist's hand is potting it;' and ends almost exactly as you quoted with: 'Not a little place at Tooting / But a country-house with shooting / And a ring-fence, deer-park Lie.'
