Winter.
ny wu. =. rRASNAN.

Now the Frost. King tweaks our nose,
Mn, orr fingers and our toes,
While The sulien storm.wind blows
In or face;
And, Appealing to the sky,
with a bitter agony,
We may heaye a frozen sign
For our race.
For We know stern Winter 5 come,
Ava Inn 1sre we'll hear the hum
OF the singing streams, made dumb
In tricc;
And we know our fellow man,
BE hc clad as best he can,
Must endure the tiigid ban
OF the ice.
But around the household fire.
Now the matron and the sire
Bid their children all aspire
To home,
whnr, no frost. nor hail, nor snow,
Whore no storm winds ever blow,
And where pain and want and woe,
Cannot come.
Thus from want and woe secure,
Let Us not forget the poor,
AS they beg from door to door,
lhiuly clad;
We should warm their frozen palms
With the blessings of our aims,
Till their hearts throb thankful psalms
And are glad.
For in life's unceItin span
We should love our fellow man,
And do all the good we can
Ere we die;
With a bright and hopeful trust,
When our fccting forms are dust,
We may join the good and just
in the sky.
