Mystery quote

So I have recording of Vincent Price reciting a poem called "All Saints' Eve." It's gorgeous, but I have been unable to track down who actually wrote it. So I'm posting it here in the hopes that someone recognises it. And so the rest of you can enjoy it :)

Look! There beyond the window-pane

According to this site , which is where I first got the recording, it's by Leah Bodine Drake.

Apparently there's a remastered CD of it out there, which probably sounds better:

Oh, budget, why must you taunt me.
