 Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
  Conspiring with him how to load and bless
   With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eaves run;
    To bend with apples the moss'd cottage trees,
     And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core.

 I saw old Autumn in the misty morn
 Stand shadowless like silence, listening
  To silence, for no lonely bird would sing
   Into his hollow ear from woods forlorn,
    Nor lowly hedge nor solitary thorn;--

      With tangled gossamer that fell by night,
       Pearling his coronet of golden corn.
