:Samuel Johnson: ''Autumn: An Ode'' (parts)
2. 'Twas spring, 'twas summer, all was gay;
Now autumn bends a cloudy brow;
The flowers of spring are swept away,
And summer-fruits desert the bough.


9. O! what remains, what lingers yet,
To cheer me in the darkening hour?
The grape remains! The friend of wit,
In love and mirth of mighty power.
11. Still, still, the jocund strain shall flow,
The pulse with vigorous rapture beat;
My Stella with new charms shall glow,
And every bliss in wine shall meet.}}

:Daniel Belknap, 1800
'Twas spring, 'twas summer, all was gay;
Now autumn bends a cloudy brow;
The flowers of spring are swept away,
And summer's sweets desert the bough.
Now naked and deformed are seen
The meadows lately dressed in green;
The groves and fields are disarrayed,
The songsters of the wood are fled.}}

Samuel Johnson: Autumn: An Ode (parts)
2. 'Twas spring, 'twas summer, all was gay;
Now autumn bends a cloudy brow;
The flowers of spring are swept away,
And summer-fruits desert the bough.

9. O! what remains, what lingers yet,
To cheer me in the darkening hour?
The grape remains! The friend of wit,
In love and mirth of mighty power.

11. Still, still, the jocund strain shall flow,
The pulse with vigorous rapture beat;
My Stella with new charms shall glow,
And every bliss in wine shall meet.

 

Daniel Belknap, 1800
'Twas spring, 'twas summer, all was gay;
Now autumn bends a cloudy brow;
The flowers of spring are swept away,
And summer's sweets desert the bough.

Now naked and deformed are seen
The meadows lately dressed in green;
The groves and fields are disarrayed,
The songsters of the wood are fled.
