These dreamy days;
While hills afar are dim and blue
In robes of haze;
And Summer waves q last ad1eu
With saddened face;
While Autumn slowly comes along
In stately grace.
Where are the vines, the pumpkins vines,
that lately Doomed and stood
IN brighter light, and softer airs, DeauteOuS

Alas they are all their graves; these gentle
vines must die!
Their fruits are in the cellar stored-trot out
