The Cricket Song.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep. sleep,
Deep, deep, deep, deep
The moments are flying
The daylight is dying,
And crickets are singing
The Summer to sleep.
"Sleep, sleep, sleep, Sleep"
Shadows that linger on low-land and
steep;
Leaves now their vespers
Saying in whispers.
And crickets are singing
The Summer to sleep!
"Sleep, sleep, sleep. sleep"
Scents of the orchard that languidly
creep,
Golden-rod's STOPPING,
Aster is dropping.
And crickets are lulling
The Summer TO sleep!
"Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep"
Clouds in the distance that huddle like
sheep;
Fever and riot
Fade into quiet,
And crickets are singing
The Summer to Sleep
