But de diffunce, dat whut make

Lookin'-glass an' man.

A MISTY DAY

Heart of my heart, the day is chill,

The mist hangs low o'er the wooded hill,

The soft white mist and the heavy cloud

The sun and the face of heaven shroud.

The birds are thick in the dripping trees,

That drop their pearls to the beggar breeze;

No songs are rife where songs are wont,
