A whispering silence broods o’er all around,
As in cathedral when the praise and prayer
Are lingering pulses on the waves of sound,
And naught disturbs but muffled heart'-
. throbs there. ' '
Yet all is bright—the sun scarce past the
noon ; '
And stealing out from dusky, darkling wood,
Comes fortha matron shod with mossy shoon
From off her brows she lays the binding
snood—
When 10 her chestnut locks final 0 the
breeze .
Like silken algal cerulean seas.
The flowers have hung their heads; but all
gay things .
That buzzing flit, on busy, gauzy wings,
'I‘o chant her beauties, gratefully remember,
And hail our princess, timid grave Septem-
ber.
