IN THE RAIN.


I stand in the cold grey weather,
In the white and silvery rain;
The great trees huddle together,
And sway with the windy strain.
I dream of the purple glory
Of the roseate mountain-height,
And the sweet-to-remember story
Of a distant and dear delight.

The rain keeps constantly raining,
And the sky is cold and grey,
And the wind in the trees keeps complaining,
That summer has passed away;—
