    The windflower and the violet, they perished long ago,
    And the brier-rose and the orchis died amid the summer glow;
    But on the hills the golden-rod, and the aster in the wood,
    And the yellow sunflower by the brook, in autumn beauty stood,
    Till fell the first from the clear cold heaven, as falls the
    plague on men,
    And the brightness of their smile was gone, from upland glade and
    glen.

They know the time to go!
The fairy clocks strike their inaudible hour
In field and woodland, and each punctual flower
Bows at the signal an obedient head
And hastens to bed.
