In Old Vermont

The straWbeFries faii IN the wake n the knives
That lay the tan grass low,
And the click Of the moRing machine Is heard
wherever the soft winds blow.
Far under the caves Of the old barn loft
A sun0eating man
Is moving away without the aid
Of an electric fan.
The tumbles pitched on the loaded rack
The children are treadlng down,
And the feetthat dance on the scented load
Are dirty and bare and brown.
As the creaking wagon IL drawn away
BY horses that strain aud tug,
The haymakers turn % the shady nook
OF the sweetened-Water jug.
It's squat and brown and sweating hard.
But u gurgles 10 pleasing way
| When tilted against the thirsty lips
On a blazing july DAY.
