WHEN AUTUMN PAssETH BY.
Where purple ederberries vie
With sumac's crimson STAN
O'erfows the winding lane
A myriad Insect voices iute
And rival throats reply.
No tree. no tuft of grass Is mute
When autumn passeth by
A perfume rare OF rpenng leaves
On zephyr pinions floats, .sv.
Blends with the crickets notes:
Each hanging bough a censer swings
Beneath the dreamful sky,
When autumn passeth by.
The spiders third their gossamer
With jewels for her head
The Thf sroSssy sSfy s. shf may s sa%@er 'asaa gle.
w.heneer her feet draw nigh.
And gently drones the yellow bes
Strange sorcer.es the spirit bind
And work haunting spell:
And whisper beauty's kneiI
Al eventide a lonely star
Comes forth TO mourn on high.
And sheds It's aulverlng light afar
When autumn passeth by.
The sweetest song that ever flows
Hath sorrow IN its strain.
The keenest Joy that mortal knows
Is always hail pain
So life and death combine their art
To charm the ear and eye.
And lovely pathos wins the hear.
