I.
As
imperceptibly
as
grief
The
summer
lapsed
away,
--
Too
imperceptible,
at
last,
To
seem
like
perfidy.
A
quietness
distilled,
As
twilight
long
begun,
Or
Nature,
spending
with
herself
Sequestered
afternoon.
The
dusk
drew
earlier
in,
The
morning
foreign
shone,
--
A
courteous,
yet
harrowing
grace,
As
guest
who
would
be
gone.
