The Autumn tans & varigates the leaves
The nuts are ripe in woods about the Town
Russet the cleared fields where the bindweed weaves
Round stubbles & still flowers the trefoil seeds
& troubles all the land from rig to furrow
Ther's nothing left but rubbish & foul weeds
I love to see the rabbits snug made burrow
Under the old edge bank or hugh mossed oak
Claspt fast with Ivy there the rabbit breeds
Where the Kite pelews & the Ravens croak
The nuts are ripe in woods about the Town
Russet the cleared fields where the bindweed weaves
Round stubbles & still flowers the trefoil seeds
& troubles all the land from rig to furrow
Ther's nothing left but rubbish & foul weeds
I love to see the rabbits snug made burrow
Under the old edge bank or hugh mossed oak
Claspt fast with Ivy there the rabbit breeds
Where the Kite pelews & the Ravens croak
