Where can he rest secure from harms. Whom even a helpless hare alarms ? Yet he repines not at his lot. When past, the danger is forgot : On yonder bough he trims his wings, And with unusual rapture sings : 190 While we, less WTetched, sink beneath Our lighter ills, and rush to death. No more of this unmeaning rage, But hear, my friends, the words of age : ' When by the winds of autumn driven The scattered clouds fly 'cross the heaven. Oft have we, from some mountain's head. Beheld th' alternate... light and shade Sweep the long vale. Here, hovering, lowers 92 THE POEMS The shadowy cloud ; there downwai'd pours, 200 Streaming direct, a flood of day.
