If seasons like the human race had souls	A
Then two artistic spirits live within	B
The Chameleon mind of Autumn these	C
The Poet's mentor and the Painter's guide	D
The myriad thoughted phases of the mind	E
Are truly represented by the hues	F
That thrill the forests with prophetic fire	G
And what could painter's skill compared to these	C
What palette ever held the flaming tints	H
That on these leafy hieroglyphs foretell	I
How set the ebbing currents of the year	J
What poet's page was ever like to this	K
Or told the lesson of life's waning days	L
More forcibly with more of natural truth	M
Than yon red maples or these poplars white	N
As the pale shroud that wraps some human corse	O
And then again the spirit of a King	P
Clothed with that majesty most monarchs lack	Q
Might fit old Autumn for his royal rule	R
For here is kingly ermine cloth of gold	S
And purple robes well worthy to be worn	T
By the best monarch that e'er donned a crown	U
	-
Proclaim him Royal Autumn Poet King	P
The Laureate of the Seasons whose rare songs	V
Are such as lyrist never hoped to fling	P
On the fine ear of an admiring world	W
Autumn the Poet Painter and true King	P
His gorgeous Ideality speaks forth	X
	-
From the rare colors of the changing leaves	Y
And the ripe blood that swells his purple veins	Z
Is as the glowing of a sacred fire	G
He walks with Shelley's spirit on the cliffs	A2
Of the Ethereal Caucasus and o'er	G
The summits of the Euganean hills	B2
And meets the soul of Wordsworth in profound	C2
And philosophic meditation rapt	D2
In some great dream of love towards	E2
The human race The cheery Spring may come	F2
And touch the dreaming flowers into life	G2
Summer expand her leafy sea of green	H2
And wake the joyful wilderness to song	I2
As a fair hand strikes music from a lyre	J2
But Autumn from its daybreak to its close	K2
Setting in florid beauty like the sun	L2
Robed with rare brightness and ethereal flame	M2
Holds all the year's ripe fruitage in its hands	N2
And dies with songs of praise upon its lips	O2
	-
And then the Indian Summer bland as June	P2
Some Tuscarora King Algonquin Seer	Q2
Or Huron Chief returned to smoke the Pipe	R2
Of Peace upon the ancient hunting grounds	S2
The mighty shade in spirit walking forth	X
To feel the beauty of his native woods	T2
Flashing in Autumn vestures or to mark	U2
The scanty remnants of the scattered tribes	V2
Wending towards their graves Few Braves are left	W2
Few mighty Hunters fewer stately Chiefs	X2
Like great Tecumseth fit to take the field	Y2
And lead the tribes to certain victory	Z2
	-
Choosing annihilation to defeat	A3
But having run thy gauntlet of their days	L
This Autumn remnant of some unknown race	B3
Nearing the Winter of their sad decay	C3
Fall like dry leaves into the lap of Time	D3
Their old trunks sapless their tough branches bare	E3
And Fate's shrill war whoop thund'ring at their heels	F3
