SWEET ANNE AUTUMN
Sweet Anne of the beauteous auburn hair, You’ve come once again ere the days grow cold; [With your dainty bronze frock, and your wings filmy fair And your dainty feet cased in wee slippers of gold!
Sweet Anne, Anne of Autumn, the a breezes are sighing. Of what is the gist of their sweet plaintive cry?/ Is it because sweet summer is dying? Or is it a greeting to welcome you by?
Sweet Anne, Anne of Autumn, in your golden glory, N Pray yoii be kind to the little leaves, do, Touch them so gently, and tell them your story, , . , Deck them in diamonds, made from sweet dew.
Sweet Anne, Anne of Autumn, have you your paint box? Have you scarlet for spindles and sweet briars, too? Pray don’t forget the Virginian creepers - And how could the hawthorns change without you? —YIRGIE WINDUSS. 11 Warrington street.
