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 gloryOf the roseate mountain-height,And the sweet-to-remember storyOf 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;—
