We stood where the fields were tawny	A
Where the redolent woodland was warm	B
And the summer above us now lawny	A
Was alive with the pulse winds of storm	B
	-
And we watched weak wheat waves lighten	A
And wince and hiss at each gust	C
And the turbulent maples whiten	A
And the lane grow gray with dust	C
	-
White flakes from the blossoming cherry	A
Pink snows of the peaches were blown	A
And star fair blooms of the berry	A
And the dogwood's flowers were strewn	A
	-
And the luminous hillocks grew sullied	D
And shadowed and thrilled with alarm	E
When the body of the blackness was gullied	D
With the rapid keen flame of the storm	B
	-
And the birds to dry coverts had hurried	D
And the musical rillet ran slow	F
And the buccaneer bee was worried	D
And the red lilies swung to and fro	F
	-
Till the elf cuirassiers of the showers	G
Came bright with slant lances of rain	A
And charged the bare heads of the flowers	G
And trampled the grass of the plain	A
	-
And the armies of the leaves were shattered	D
Their standards drenched heavy and lank	H
And the iron weed's purple was spattered	D
And the lily lay broke on the bank	H
	-
But high in the storm was the swallow	F
And the rain strong voice of the fall	I
In the bough grottoed dingle sang hollow	F
To the sky blue flags on its wall	I
	-
But the storm and its clouds passed over	J
And left but one cloud in the West	D
Wet wafts that were fragrant with clover	J
And the sun low sunken to rest	D
	-
Soft spices of rain studded poppies	K
Of honey unfilched of a bee	A
And balm of the mead and the coppice	K
And musk of the rain breathing tree	A
	-
Then the cloud in the West was riven	A
And bubbled and bursten with gold	D
Blown out through deep gorges of heaven	A
And spilled on the wood and the wold	D
