And howl in mountain passes Tar;

And nevermore shall bat,led pines,
Their solemn triumph sound Tor me,
Nor morning fringe The mountaln-linesi
Nor sunset flush he hoary sea-
But Night and Winter ill The sky,
And load with tros, the shiveflng all,
Till every gust hat hurries by
Chimes wilder with my own despair
The leaden twilight, cold and long,
Is slowly settling Ger The wave;
No wandering blast awakes song,
In naked bouehS above Thy grave.
The frozen air is sill and dark;
The numb'd earth lies in icy rest;
And all is dead save This one spark
