THE AUTUMN WIND,

The AUTUMN WIND.
tIark! It's the first aulumnal blast,
Reminding us that summers past,
With all its bright display:
When earth seemed carpeled with flow ers
And music charmed the fleeing hours
Throughout the ivelong day.
1t comes along the tranquil deep,
Rousing the pillows from their sleep.
And in its dlrge-ike flow,
And wildly fil(ul, hollow moan,
That makes the trembling forest groan,
There is a tale of woe.
1t speaks Of winters stormy power
or many dark and dismal hou,
To pilgrims on the main;
OF corses floating on the deep,
OF sorrowng friends, for those tina, weep
They meier shall see again
Natures wild harp! in evety cline
Thy music, since the first sad time,
Has struck the Pensive ear;
Now, signing with gentle tone;
Now, swecplng in tempest on.
Through all its chords of fear.
How often with uneanhy sound.
Like to spirits waiIing round,
Thou comst at midnight hour
To ill the soul--when all is peace
With thoughts oflle's uncertain lease,
And Gods almighty power,
Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1845-10-09
