"The summer-flower has run to seed, and yellow is the wooded bough;  And every leaf of bush and weed is tilt with autumn's pencil now.  And I do love the varied hue, and I do love the browning plain;  And I do love each scene to view, that's marked with beauties of her reign.........."  John Clare (from the Village Minstrel, 1821)
