THE WINDS OF DAWN

Whither do ye blow?

For now the moon is low.

Whence is it that ye come,

And where is it ye go?

All night the air was still,

The crickets’ song was shrill;

But now there runs a hum

And rustling through the trees.

A breath of coolness wakes,

As on Canadian lakes,

And on Atlantic seas,

And each high Alpine lawn

Begin the winds of dawn.
