| | | THE STORM that must have spoiled the apple-bloom, | |
| The rain that kept me housed, the wind that chills | |
| The little birds, the thunder and the gloom, | |
| Return defeated to their far-off hills. | |
| Upon the roof their footsteps pass. A lull | 5 |
| Falls on the noisy weeping of the eaves. | |
| Out is my fire and my book grown dull. | |
| |
| The sun peers out upon the shining leaves. | | | | |
