Autumn John Clare SUMMARY The poet gives a beautiful picture of the autumnal beauty. He likes the occasional rush of beauty that shakes the casements throughout the day and blows away the withered leaves from the elm trees covered with moss. The leaves fall spinning by the window pane and are sometimes carried away with other leaves down the lane. The poet is fond of the sombre beauty of the dancing twigs in a bare tree that continues till the evening sets in. The chirping of the sparrows from the thatched roof of a cottage, brings, for a time being the vernal air.

At last the blood ceased flowing, the man revived and asked for something to drink. The Tsar brought fresh water and gave it to him. Then the Tsar, with the hermit’s help carried the man into the hu...
