The Rainy Day.

The day ls cold, and dark and dreary; lt rains and the wind is never weary; The vine still clings 10 the mouldcring walls, But at every gust the dead leaves fall, And the day Is cold, and dark and dreary. My life is cold and dark and dreary IL rains, and the wind Is never weary; My thoughts still cling to the mouldcrlng past, But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast, And the days are cold, and dark and dreary. Re still, sad heart, and cease repinlug; Behind the clouds the suns still shining, Thy fate Is the common fate of all, Into each life some rain must fall, Some days be dark and dreary.
