To the Autumn Leaf.

Lone trembling one.
Last of summer race, wither'd and scar,
Aad shverng- wherefore art thou lingering here7
Thy work is done.
Thou hast seen all
Tie summer leaves reposing in their tomb.
And the green leaves that knew thee in their bloom
Wither and fall,
Why dost thou cling
So fondly 10 the rough and sapless tree!
Hath then existence aught like charms for thee,
Thou faded thing
The voice of Spring,
Which woke thee unto being, ne'er again
VIII greet thee nor the gentle summers rain
New verdure bring.
The zephyr's breath,
No more will wake for thee its melody
But the lone signing of the blast shall be
The hymn Of death.
Yet few days
A few faint struggles of the Autumn storm,
And the strained eye to catch thy trembling form
In vain may gaze.
Pale Autumn leaf!
Thou art an emblem Of mortality;
Tie broken hedrt once young and fresh like thee,
Wither'd by grief
Whose hopes are fed,
Whose loved ones al have dropped and died away
SdlI clings to life-and lingenng loves to stay
Above the dead !
But list. cen now
hear the gathering of the Autumn blast;
1t comes, thv frail form trembles-it Is past
And thou art low.
