Between two pillared clouds of gold	A
The beautiful gates of evening swung	B
And far and wide from flashing fold	A
The half furled banners of light that hung	B
O'er green of wood and gray of wold	A
And over the blue where the river rolled	A
The fading gleams of their glory flung	B
	-
The sky wore not a frown all day	C
To mar the smile of the morning tide	D
The soft voiced winds sang joyous lay	C
You never would think they had ever sighed	D
The stream went on its sunlit way	C
In ripples of laughter happy they	C
As the hearts that met at Riverside	D
	-
No cloudlet in the sky serene	E
Not a silver speck in the golden hue	F
But where the woods waved low and green	E
And seldom would let the sunlight through	F
Sweet shadows fell and in their screen	E
The faces of children might be seen	E
And the flash of ribbons of blue	F
	-
It was a children's simple feast	G
Yet many were there whose faces told	A
How far they are from childhood's East	G
Who have reached the evening of the old	A
And father mother sister priest	G
They seemed all day like the very least	G
Of the little children of the fold	A
	-
The old forgot they were not young	B
The young forgot they would e'er be old	A
And all day long the trees among	B
Where'er their footsteps stayed or strolled	A
Came wittiest word from tireless tongue	B
And the merriest peals of laughter rung	B
Where the woods drooped low and the river rolled	A
	-
No cloud upon the faces there	H
Not a sorrow came from its hiding place	I
To cast the shadow of a care	H
On the fair sweet brows in that fairest place	I
For in the sky and in the air	H
And in their spirits and everywhere	H
Joy reigned in the fullness of her grace	I
	-
The day was long but ah too brief	J
Swift to the West bright winged she fled	K
Too soon on ev'ry look and leaf	J
The last rays flushed which her plumage shed	K
From an evening cloud was it a sign of grief	J
And the bright day passed is there much relief	J
That its dream dies not when its gleam is dead	K
	-
Great sky thou art a prophet still	L
And by thy shadows and by thy rays	M
We read the future if we will	L
And all the fates of our future ways	M
To morrows meet us in vale and hill	L
And under the trees and by the rill	L
Thou givest the sign of our coming days	M
	-
That evening cloud was a sign I ween	E
For the sister of that summer day	C
Shall come next year to the selfsame scene	E
The winds will sing the selfsame lay	C
The selfsame woods will wave as green	E
And Riverside thy skies serene	E
Shall robe thee again in a golden sheen	E
Yet though thy shadows may weave a screen	E
Where the children's faces may be seen	E
Thou ne'er shall be as thou hast been	E
For a face they loved has passed away	C
