And field & forest each his lord obeyed
Then rose the Winter in the endless
train,
And sprea1 his SHOWS upon the pros
trate plain,
And one iHterminable shroud OF white
Concealed decaying nature from sight.

Majestic DER the glittering fields of
white,
Ere Winter ceased impetuous wrath to
vent,
Ere all the fury Of HE storm was spent,
Ihen slow retiring to the arctic name
lie leaves thee, Goddess, 70 resume thv
