AN AUTUMN REveRlE

.Tis autumn-and off together.
Over the hills and away.
We go in golden weather,
Ny lady and l. to-day.
And sit on the hillside sunny
Where the purple grapes hang low
And watch the clouds a-floating by
And their shadows come and 60.
We hear the clear pipe Of autumn
The call of the hiding quail
And see the fash of gold as he flies
Over the old fence rail.
My lady's face is dreamy,
And her thoughts seem far away,
As she twines the leaves for a garland,
To trim her hat to-day.
"Of what are you thinking 2" ask her,
And she lifts her eyes so brown;
i was wondering" she said-the mis-
chief!
will the new hatbrims turn up or
down ?"
