When August burned upon the years
decline.
1 stepped within the whispers of a
wood,
Whose whitest day. pricked back by
darkest pine.
Made shimmering tumult where the
thick stems stood.
Some scent of withering sap--a seeth-
ing wine
Made incense Of the balsam- -breathed
drouth
Sweet as the sigh OF Summer in the
- South.
Athirst for Autumn and the purple
vine.
My feet pressed down the mosses' A.
brous gray;
A dry twig cracked upon drier
stone;
All parehed views of lavender and
brown
= Died in the channels Of the rocky
way,
And In the famished covert, alone.
Knew in what floods the thirst OF
life may drown.
