"Will you not walk the woods with me? / The shafts of sunlight burn / On many a golden-crested tree / And many a russet fern.

The Summer's robe is dyed anew, / And Autumn's veil of mist / Is gemmed with little pearls of dew / Where first we met and kissed."

"I will not walk the woodlands brown / Where ghosts and mists are blown, / But I will walk the lonely down / And I will walk alone.

Where Night spreads out her mighty wing / And dead days keep their tryst, / There will I weep the woods of Spring / Where first we met and kissed. "
