between such a day and the full rich- landscape with blue distances, the 



ness of the summer day, when the ves- crows cawing in the bare wood, and 



Myriad firefly lamps in the rushes

 day the peculiar autumnal note of the 

 bob-o-link, heard overhead, tells us that 

 the season's tide has turned and au- 

 tumn is at hand. The autumn of red 



streaming 



in a long line across the 

 fields.

 one from another, yet each has its spe- 

 cial attractiveness. Therefore, though 

 we have traveled a path once, we may 

 do so yet again with profit.
