"Even as a child he loved to thrid the bowers,"."The Dreamer" by Madison Cawein
https://discoverpoetry.com/poems/nature-poems/ #27
AI: Based on the context of the poem you're reading, thrid is an archaic or poetic variation of the word thread.
In this specific line by Madison Cawein, "he loved to thrid the bowers," it means to pass through or weave his way along a narrow or intricate path, much like a needle passing through cloth.
It's a lovely, old-fashioned way of describing someone wandering through the dense greenery of nature." Enjoyed :)
