THE MELANCHOLY DAYS.

written For The Democrat.)
IT'S time to yank the carpets up
And scrub and polish floors,
While the hired person toys with
screens
At windows and at doors!
And piazza chairs and hammocks
troop
To attic regions drear,
And by these signs prophetic
We know that Autumns here.
Now we hustle out the macintosh
The rainstick and the wrap,
Store away the airy bike-rig
And haul out the covered trap;
And shoe the steed with rubber
| And air his winter gear.
And by these signs prophetic,
We know that Autumn's here.
oh, will sing of Autumn,
With her melancholy rain,
That streaks with sooty frescoes
The new-washed window pane;
And l will sing Of Winter
she turns up every year,
And then 1t will be time to shout
That gentle Spring" Is here.
