Summer begins to have the look
Peruser of enchanting Book
Reluctantly but sure perceives
A gain upon the backward leaves
---
Autumn begins to be inferred
By millinery of the cloud
Or deeper color in the shawl
That wraps the everlasting hill
---
The eye begins it's avarice
A meditation chastens speech
Some Dyer of a distant tree
Resumes his gaudy industry
---
Conclusion is the course of all
Almost to be perennial
And then elude stability
Recalls to immortality -
