Poem by John Bannister Tabb

The Reaper

Tell me whither, maiden June,
Down the dusky slope of noon
With thy sickle of a moon,
Goest thou to reap.

"Fields of Fancy by the stream
Of night in silvery silence gleam,
To heap with many a harvest-dream
The granary of Sleep."

1. The Bee and the Blossoms

3. Chimney Stacks
4. Seed-Time
5. The New-Year Babe
