11There came a wind like a bugle,There came a Wind like a Bugle —
22It quivered through the grass,It quivered through the Grass
33And a green chill upon the heatAnd a Green Chill upon the Heat
44So ominous did passSo ominous did pass
55We barred the Windows and the Doors
66We barred the windows and the doorsAs from an Emerald Ghost —
77As from an emerald ghostThe Doom's electric Moccasin
88The doom's electric moccasinThat very instant passed —
99That very instant passed.On a strange Mob of panting Trees
1010And Fences fled away
1111On a strange mob of panting trees,And Rivers where the Houses ran
1212And fences fled away,Those looked that lived — that Day —
1313And rivers where the houses ranThe Bell within the steeple wild
1414The living looked that day,The flying tidings told —
1515How much can come
1616The bell within the steeple wild,And much can go,
1717The flying tidings whirled.And yet abide the World!
18How much can come and much can go,
19And yet abide the world!
