When friendly summer calls again,
       &nbsp Calls again
Her little fifers to these hills,
We’ll go - we two - to that arched fane
Of leafage where they prime their bills
Before they start to flood the plain
With quavers, minims, shakes, and trills.
       &nbsp “ - We’ll go,” I sing; but who shall say
       &nbsp What may not chance before that day!

And we shall see the waters spring,
       &nbsp Waters spring
From chinks the scrubby copses crown;
And we shall trace their oncreeping
To where the cascade tumbles down
And sends the bobbing growths aswing,
And ferns not quite but almost drown.
       &nbsp “ - We shall,” I say; but who may sing
       &nbsp Of what another moon will bring!
