Explanation:

1. "I'm going out to clean the pasture spring;": This action focuses on maintenance, not nature's fragility.
2. "(And wait to watch the clear water, I may):" This describes observing clear water, no indication of fragility.
3. "It totters when she licks it with her tongue.": The word "totters" shows a delicate, easily disturbed natural thing, supporting the theme.
4. "I shan't be long. —You come too.": This is an invitation, unrelated to nature's fragility.

• I'm going out to clean the pasture spring;: No
• (And wait to watch the clear water, I may): No
• It totters when she licks it with her tongue.: Yes
• I shan't be long. —You come too.: No
