XLV. EAST WIND IN JUNE.

East Wind in June, and clouded sky,
And ruffled leaves that mourn and sigh,
And flutter down, alas! too soon;
What discord for a Summer noon,
Troubling the sylvan harmony.
When love demands a smile, may I
Refuse not timely sympathy,
Or bring, for friendship's genial boon,
East Wind in June.
In yonder peaceful fields on high,
Yon bowers of Paradise, which lie
Beyond the “glimpses of the moon,”
No breath shall reach us out of tune,
But lapt in bliss we shall defy
East Wind in June.
