AUTUMN. Autumn," "with Its u3a1chier fo&s utss, Cometh unto christian heift With a Joyful, pare fruition, Which no other time Imparts; Cometh in its golden harvest, In its fruits so rich and fair. In its beams of health and comfort, Bursting freibly from its air. In bright hues of gorgeous beauty Now the forests meet the eye, As the early frost of Autumn Touches lightly, passing by; As tbe north wind with a pencil Taken frem the glorious skies, Tainting on the mountain leaflet Those unrivaled rainbow dyes.
