" WINTER THOUGHTS. I. I hail thee, Winter ! Let the croaker sing Of summer skies and richly scented flowers, And wail for Autumn's fruits, or rural bowers Decked by the hand of rosy-fingered spring ; My muse shall upward soar on snowy wing To mountain summits, where, on spotless snow, Old winter sits enthroned as nature's king, And where his robes with icy jewels glow. I love thy frosty crown, thy hoary hair That waves beneath, so stately and so grand ; I love the golden basket in thy hand, Ful...l of October's fruits, so soft and bland. I bid thee welcome ; for with honest cheer And warm affection thou dost crown the year. II. Nature, of late, was like a maiden fair That lolled on sunny swards the livelong day, Decking with blushing flowers her flowing hair, Watching the buzzing insects' mazy play. O'er her fair breast she spread the new-mown hay, Then smiling turned her to the morning sun ; She loved his shining face, and every ray She welcomed with a heartfelt benison. (40) WINTER THOUGHTS.
