For be loved 10 show his power,
Bringing snow, and Ice, and winds,
Bringing sleet, and chilling high winds.
But bis subjects had grown weary
OF bis never ending fury,

And they said each to the other,

We will have the princess, Spring,
Lovely April, she shall rule us;
Winters ruled far past his time.
Now the king Is on his journey
We will crown the princess Spring.
She shall have the crown and scepter,
She shall rule us with her powers;
And her smile will change the landscape,
Change from snow TO grass and flowers"
So they crowned the lovely princess
And she reigned little while,
Everyone seemed very happy,
Fields and skies and faces smile.
But the ice-king coming homewnrd

How the people loved the ruler,
Although she was but child.
