Listen in the reader

And here the cohosh swings its snow, Gaunt from the forest springing; There gold the sorrel blossoms blow; Here vari-colored toadstools sow, Or swell the soil; and, swinging, The trumpet-vine hangs red and low Near boughs,--on which the beech-burrs glow,-- The woodland wind sways to and fro, O’er waters wildly ringing.
