RAIN.

The ccasless sound Of the scclhing rain;
The drip, drip, from the sodicn leaves ;
Tho winds at work in the ripening grain
they are ghostly mowers bending the
sheavest
md rain, riplingtraia.'
From far off farms n dull cook crow;
The brook runs red, as if the spear
OF the lightning wrought the mountains
Those gian,s,' frownins ,,,, ne ana lone and
drear; 4 .iir "t ,".',
And rain, shrilling rain.
Like silver strings of a mighty harp
Seem the glancing drops; tho woodland
SHOW pale green deeps where the winds
elbow sharp
The winds that arc never an hour at
case Ia ~,
In rain, random rain.
No footprints on tho shclterlcss road
Torn leaves bestrew the grassy ways;
Dark, lowering clouds, and what do they
,hpqe,. ....,,.
On this wcariest Of the weary days?
Rain, rain, rain
