ID RILLI AN Is.

Summers gone and over, .
Fogs are falling down,
And with russell tlnges
Autumn's doing brown.
Boughs are daily rIfled
BY the gusty thieves,
And the Book of Nature -r
Getteth short Of leaves,
Round the tops Of houses
Swallovs,as they dit,
GIVE, like yearly tenants,
Notices to quit.
Sklas OF tickle temper
Weep by turns and laugh
Night and day together
Taking halfand half.

Autumn

j led Is the blasted verdure Of the fields;
And shrunk into their beds, the howery race
Their sunny robes resign. Even what remand

And woods, fields, gardens, orchards, all around
The desolated prospect thrills the soul.
