Under the Trellis.
BY KATE PUTNAM osGooD.

Under the trellis, to and fro,
w llking and talking go two together,
Over their heads the branches blow,
Under their feet the grasses grow,
In the sweet season of springtiGe weather.
Under the trellis. to and fro,
Whispering close, go two together,
Tremulous, misty, long and low,
The meadows loom through the sunset glow,
In the hot prime OF the summer weather.
Under The trelis, to and fro,
Silently pacing, go two together.
Over the yellowing poplar row
The harvest moon comes large and slow
The wandering ghost of the autumn weather.
Under the trellis, 70 and fro,
Hand in hand, go two together.
Thick is the air with threatening snow;
Chill winds wearily come and go,
Telling the tale of the winter weather.
Little of season or scene they know,
Under the trellis, the two together.
April glimmer or autumn glow,
Sultry August winter snow
For lovers it always is summer weather.
