And yet No length' ning shadows mark the sun's decline, For all is shadowed by the cold, gray mist Which long has driven with the fitful wind, And still it is not gone. How chill the air! It seems but yesterday that summer's breath, Sultry and dry, distressed the thirsty fields And now the skies, repentant of their fault, Will more than make amends.

"What do I care about how many?" replied Mrs. Huang; "wait till I've spoken about it, and we'll see what will be the result."
