saw the soft pathetic light
Touch the streams foam to clustering white.
I saw the fearful lustre shed,
Where falling leaves heaped gold and red.
heard the music that they make
The becks that brattle through the brake,
And toss the withered fern-fronds by,
And laugh beneath the sombre sky.
heard the rivers ceaseless song,
Sweeping fr-crested hills among.
The chirpings of each lingering bird
That braves the angry North heard.
And fresh yearning woke and cried,
A voice Of Love unsatisfed,
Ard all the lovely Autumn day,
In burning tears seemed blurred away.
To wood and glen, to hill and plain,
For Natures balm l asked, in VAIN.
Then said, low and suddenly.
"God keep my darling safe for me-"
