Made from heavenly design By some unseen Artisan; Gift of Architect divine, To Acadias Weather man. Fairest season of the year, When boon Natures at her height Robed in all her beauty sere, And fair Luna sheds her light With a more bewitching cheer Through the watches of the night. And Gods lowly creatures all, Who the freemans burden bore, Having heeded labors call Now have plentitude in store, And from every household hearth Nightly offered up the word. As a sacrifice of worth To a kind and gracious Lord For the riches of the earth, Filling thus the family board. And a thrill of peaceful joy Permeates the human breast And the starry vaulted sky Seemingly is at its best, For old Sol in all his pride Scorpion doth then adorn, Midway in his yearly ride Twixt the Line and Capricorn. In this lovely Autumntide Was Waegwoltics wedding morn. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
