Paracelsus · 1835
Autumn wins you best by this its mute Appeal to sympathy for its decay.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Autumn charms most through its silent plea for pity as it declines. Without a word, the season asks for tenderness because it is fading, and the lines suggest that this quiet decay is precisely what makes it lovable.
