Lyrics

There came a wind like a bugle It quivered thro' the grass And a green chill upon the heat So all in us did pass We barred the windows and the doors As from an emerald ghost The doom's electric moccasin That very instant passed On a strange mob of panting trees And fences fled away And rivers where the houses ran The living looked that day The bell within the steeple wild The flying tidings whirled How much can come, and much can go And yet abide the world!
