CONE, tyraat Winter, issue forth,
Clad in the horrors Of the North,
Come and plant thy icy hand,
And rudely desoiate our land.
Shake thy hoar and frozen locks,
Der the barren broken rocks,
And if Ocean dare complain,
Bind him with an icy chain.
BID thy bleak North East to blow,
Come on mountain clad with snow.
High amid the scowling storm,
Let him view thy frost clad form.
Hide yon mountains naughty brows,
bid them groan beneath thy SHOWS.
Around be all thy terrors hurI'd,
And triumph Ger q conquered world.
