"Summer."
The following text is adapted from Amy Lowell's 1912 poem

It is summer, glorious, deep-toned summer,


The very crown of nature's changing year
When all her surging life is at its full.
To me alone it is a time of pause,
A..lll2id and silent space between two worlds,
When inspiration lags, and feeling sleeps,
Gathering strength for efforts yet to come.
