Det er Sommerkvæld som da

Det er Sommerkvæld som da,
Duft af Blomster langveis fra,
Gud, jeg synes undertiden,
at det er saa længe siden.

Og der slaar et lummert Drag
gjennem Løvets tunge Tag
og det suser: Kjære, vene,
hvorfor gaar du her alene?
Confirmed with Nils Vogt, Fra vaar til Høst, anden ogede og rettede Udgave, Kristiania, Olaf Norlis Forlag, 1904, p. 41.
