Crépuscule

Maxwell Struthers Burt

IN all the lonely places and the hills

By dusk comes down faint trumpeting; it fills

The hollows and the river-banks with sound,

And music is like mist along the ground:

In all the forest paths and secret places,

The lilies seem like small forgotten faces;

And clothed in dimming gold, and by our side,

With muted hoofs, the dead contented ride.
