COMING OF WINTER

O’er the hilltops dark and dreary,

O’er the snow-capped, distant mountains,

Wrapped and covered in his furskins,

In his white and frozen furskins,

Comes old winter roaring loudly;

On before him comes the wild-goose,

With his cry of desolation

Ringing through the misty heavens.
