yellow too And soon another year of life has passed Winds change now and the morning frost is The glens and hills and fields so green before The Master hand depicts the changing scene And paints its beauty on the land serene And so the die is cast Tender debentures Soon winter with its chilling gusty breath Blows snow and sleet and storm that whispers death To all that was spring and summer autum
