SHADOWS.


The shadows are falling Ger valley and
void, ...
On the pure untrodden snow, ...
There s genial warmth, then it's icily cold
As the cloud-shadows come and go
Ger the snow.
The orb kisses midday, his influence unfelt,
BY the scintilating snow
Its beauty abides for it never can melt
While the north-winds onward blow
Ger the snow.
Thus all the day passes till darkness pre-
walls,
And purely preserved is the snow,
When but for the shadows and freezing
north-gales,
1t had vanished in the the glow
Ger the snow.
All sunshine would dazzle the weak human
eye,
And blind it to all below,
The winds must be raging, the dark sha L.
ows fly
To keep the heart pure as the snow,
Here below
The bright sun is GoD's, His clouds hide
the rays
Shading your path like the snow;
1t is Gods winds that wafe them ani be ars
them away,
That to Heaven your spirit may go
Pure as snow.
