'Autumn Lyric. ..• 1
The leaves are:faring; the flowers are La ing,
Alimlg like giants the forth winds pasis i -
all strangely. shading ,
The betigh are thinning,
• With, lattice work the yellow grass;
.The` lies look greyer, the. sun light Col er,
A sid we sit on the leafy ground, ,
lonely and sadly, `.The year wti older,
• For he has well nigh run his journey round.'

T o Memory, the keeper, ,we give the g!_t dnesti , •
stiniiner hours dux:so soon have liown;
y o f i she grain - we have, reaped mill cheer the,stidness
