DescriptionLower margin: "Hence from the busy joy resounding fields,/ In cheerful error let us tread the maze/ Of Autumn unconfine'd, and taste reviv'd/ The breath of orchard big with bending fruit./ Obedient to the breeze and beating ray,/ from the deep-loaded bough a mellow show'r/ Incessant melts away/ Vide.
