On her wreathed brow the Shadow of a
Dream.

And heralded the Morning; and dim wales
Where Love was lost in violetS; rills that

The laughing water-lilies. singing far
The secrets of the green land to the sea
And meadows where the moonlight loved
to dwell: --.
And red retreats of roses trimmed with
Loves Joyous tears-but still the Light

But from her brow the Shadow of that
Passed; and the sun burnt bloom into
her cheek:
The The winds, came fragrant from the fields
The harvests smiled to heaven; came,
and tossed H
Her streaming tresses over her dim
eyes
And east her gold upon the summer
graves.
And sang the Reaping Song!

The fields-the forests bless thee; hills

Sing to high heaven; and the ample
barns
Are piled with bright Abundance. and
