A Year's Carols: 09 - September

Algernon Charles Swinburne

Hail, kind September, friend whose grace
Renews the bland year’s bounteous face
With largess given of corn and wine
Through many a land that laughs with love
Of thee and all the heaven above,
More fruitful found than all save thine
Whose skies fulfill with strenuous cheer
The fervent fields that knew thee near.
