INDIAN SUMMER (2) by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: NO MORE THE BATTLE OR THE CHASE
Last Line: ASCENDS TO HEAVEN AGAIN.
Subject(s): INDIAN SUMMER; NATURE;

NO more the battle or the chase
The phantom tribes pursue,
But each in its accustomed place
The Autumn hails anew:
And still from solemn councils set
On every hill and plain,
The smoke of many a calumet
Ascends to heaven again.
