Hauled Wp 
Wake! for the Sun which thro’ the summer days 
Shone thro’ our misty air with tempered rays, 
Now shines on fields of mellow fruitfulness 
And paves with fallen leaves the woodland ways. 
Come! haul the boat from out the yielding wave, 
Prepare the winter’s rigor to outbrave, 
Now that the summer folk are striking tent 
Let’s settle down, be quiet and behave.
