Lesson 3 



SEPTEMBER 



r I ^HE golden-rod is yellow; 



JL The corn is turning brown ; 

 The trees in apple orchards 



With fruit are bending down. 



The gentian's bluest fringes 



Are curling in the sun ; 

 In dusty pods the, milkweed 



Its hidden silk has spun. 



The sedges flaunt their harvest, 

 In many a meadow nook; 



And asters by the brook-side 

 Make asters in the brook.
