From upland slopes I see the cows file by, Rowing, great-chested, down the homeward trail, Ry dusking fields and meadows shining rale With moon-tipped dandelions; flicker ing high A peevish night-hawk In the western sky Beats up into the lucent solitudes, Or drops with girding wing; the stilly woods * Grow dark and deep, and gloom myste riously, Cool nlxht winds creep and whisper In mine ear; The homely cricket gossips at my feet; From far off pool* and wastes of reed I hear With ebb and change the changing frogs break sweet In full Pandean chorus; one by one Shine out the stars, and the great night comes on.
