THE BRITISH MINSTREL; AND
A SONG FOR AUTUMN.
Summer waneth night and morning,
Niglit and morning waneth !
Flowers are (ading on the lea,
Leaves are changing on the tree,
Gossamer is silvery bright,
Thistle-down is tioating white.
Every blossom's leaf is shed,
Fruits are hanging ripe and red.
Singing-birds have flown away, —
Alter this can summer stay ?
No, no, the year must go.
Summer has departed now.
Autnmn cometh night and morning,
Night and uiurning cometh I
By the nightly- rising moon.
By the splendours of the noon.
By the flowers that have no fellow,
Purple, crimson, gold, and yellow;
By the pattering drily down
Of the nuts and acorns brown.
By the silent forest-bough
All may know 'tis Autumn now.
Fast or slow the year must go,
.4nd 'tis gorgeous Autumn now.
Mary Umvitt.
