Mild the mist upon the hill
Telling not of ______ tomorrow;

Spent ______ store of silent sorrow.
O, I'm gone back to ______ days of youth,

And near the old ______ door
I watch this cloudy evening fall
After a ______ of rain;
Blue mists, sweet mists of summer pall

The damp stands on the long ______ grass
As thick as morning's tears,
And dreamy scents ______ fragrance pass
That breathe of other years.
