The melancholy days have come, the saddest of the year,
Of wailing winds, and naked woods, and meadows brown and sear.

Glorious are the woods in their latest gold and crimson,
Yet our full-leaved willows are in the freshest green.

Glorious are the woods in their latest gold and crimson,
Yet our full-leaved willows are in the freshest green.
Such a kindly autumn, so mercifully dealing
With the growths of summer, I never yet have seen.
