As I came home through Howard's lane, / The trees were bending down with rain.

A still mist went across their tops, / And my coat was powdered gray with drops.

Then I looked in the woods to see / The limbs of the white birch tree.

It made a bright spot in the air, / And I thought the sun was shining there.
