sweet sabbath Of the year,
While evening shades decay,
Thy parting steps methinks l hear,
Steal from the world away.
Amid thy silent flowers
It's sad, but sweet, to dwell,
Where falling leaves and dropping fiowers.
Around me breathe farewell
Along thy sunset skies
Their glories melt in shade,
And, Ike the things we fondly prize
Seem lovelier as they fade.
A deep end crimson streak
Thy DYING leaves disclose;
AS on Consumpu ms waning cheek,
Mid ruin, blooms the rose.
Thy scene each vision brings
