THE FROST SPIRIT.
BY J c. WHITTIER

BY J c. WHITTIER
He comes he comes-the Frost Spirit comes
You may trace bis footsteps now.
On the naked woods and blasted fields,
And the brown hills wthered brow,
He has smitten the leaves of the grey old trees
Where the pleasant dream came forth,
And the winds that follow wherever he goes,
Have shaken them down to the earth.
He comes, he comes-the Frcst Spirit comes.
From the frozen Labrador!
From the icy bridge of the northern seas,
Where the white bear wandsrs oer;
Where the fisherman's sail is stiff with ice,
And the luckless from below,
In the sunless cold of the atmosphere
Into the marble statues grow.
He comes he comes-the Frost SPirit comes
And the quiet lakes shsll feel
The torprd touch of his glazing breath,
And ring of the skate rs heels
And the streams which dancd d on the oroK rocks
Or sang TO the leaning grass,
Shall bow again to their winter chain
And in mournful S .lence pass.
He comes, he comes-the Frost Spirit comes.
Let US meet him as we may,
And turn with light of the parlor CRATE
His evil power away;
And gather closer the circle round.
When the fire light dances high
And laugh at the shrek of the bsihed hend,
As his sounding wings goes o3
