In Autumn When the Woods Are Red

Explore "In Autumn When the Woods Are Red" by Robert Louis Stevenson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

In autumn when the woods are red / And skies are gray and clear, / The sportsmen seek the wild fowls' bed / Or follow down the deer; / And Cupid hunts by haugh and head, / By riverside and mere.

I walk, not seeing where I tread / And keep my heart with fear.

Sir, have an eye, on where you tread / And keep your heart with fear, / For something lingers here; / A touch of April not yet dead, / In Autumn when the woods are red / And skies are gray and clear.
