    His breath like silver arrows pierced the air,
    The naked earth crouched shuddering at his feet,
    His finger on all flowing waters sweet
    Forbidding lay--motion nor sound was there:--
    Nature was frozen dead,--and still and slow,
    A winding sheet fell o'er her body fair,
    Flaky and soft, from his wide wings of snow.

When now, unsparing as the scourge of war,
Blasts follow blasts and groves dismantled roar;
Around their home the storm-pinched cattle lows,
No nourishment in frozen pasture grows;
Yet frozen pastures every morn resound
With fair abundance thund'ring to the ground.

Every winter,
When the great sun has turned his face away,
The earth goes down into a vale of grief,
And fasts, and weeps, and shrouds herself in sables,
Leaving her wedding-garlands to decay--
Then leaps in spring to his returning kisses.
