TWILIGHT by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: LIKE RUTH, SHE FOLLOWS WHERE THE REAPER DAY
Last Line: SHE COUNTS HER GOLDEN GRAIN.
Subject(s): EVENING; SUNSET; TWILIGHT;
Like Ruth, she follows where the reaper Day
Lets fall the slender shadows in her way;
Then, winnowing the darkness, home again,
She counts her golden grain.
