Excerpt from An Autumn Lane and Other Poems An Autumn Lane. I. The farthest hills that vaguely are outlined Are loveliest to the dreamer's pensive view; The dearest years are those that lie behind, Far off and dim in recollection's blue. I loiter, therefore, in the autumn lane That leads to where my earlier years were spent; Old forms, old thoughts, old faiths come back again As all the past is with the present blent. The dawn-gleams spread - soon will the car of light Pass yonder peak upon its world-long run: Lo, out from Night's dark tunnel on the sight See the red headlight now, the rising sun! II. Beneath the glow that like a rapture springs, The frosted fields show an unwonted dress, As though of down from visiting angels' wings Who passed above them in night's silentness.
