An Autumn Song.

There's a calm and tender feeling, as of Autumn in the air,
Everywhere, everywhere.
The shallop leaves sail down, crimson'd-green and golden'd-brown,
Here and there, here and there.
Old Rocky Face is sad, haughty, handsome, stern and bad.
But the young Cohuttas smile,
Dreaming softly all the while,
With the calm and tender feeling, as of Autumn in the air.

There's a tender, holy feeling, as of Autumn in the air
'Tis a prayer, 'tis a prayer;
Sweet benedicions and all blessings beam upon us.
Everywhere, everywhere.
While memories of Summer now faintly fade away.
Hill and valley sing in glee.
"Oh! let Love the harvest be."
With the tender, holy feeling, as of Autumn in the air.
—Robert Loveman.
