or have walked these woodland paths,
Without the bIost foreknowing
That underneath the wilhered leaves
The faireSt buds were growing.
To-day the south wind sweeps away
The types of Aulumn's splendor,
And shows the sweet nrbutus flowers
Springs children, pure and tender.
oprophet-souls, with lips Of bloom
Outvieing in their beauty
The pearly tints Of oce shells
Ye tsoch me Faith and Duty.
Walk lifes dark ways, ye seem to say,
With Loves divine foreknowing
That where man sees but withered leaves,
God sees the sweet flowers growing.

simple weather maxims to publish them
