Read these lines from "elegy written in a country churchyard."

the curfew tolls the knell of parting day,
the lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea1,
the ploughman homeward plods his weary way,
and leaves the world to darkness, and to me.
now fades the glimmering landscape on the sight,
and all the air a solemn stillness holds,
save where the beetle wheels his droning flight,
and drowsy tinklings lull the distant folds;
1 meadow
