LoWELL's LIKING FOR WINTER.

gland Landscape in January.
In all of these poems, as well as in
those in dialect, there is, to my mind, a
CHEEKY vigor, which | can best describe
by likening it to the bright aspect of
the New England landscape in mid
winter. He liked winter, by the way,
as people of a strong constitution are
apt to do, and he has written "A Good
Word for Winter" One might say that
the gayety of disposition which he had
so strongly was of the northern rather
than of the southern kind. The sun
shines in a sky without cloud, over a
wide domain of dazzling white, and the
brilliant atmosphere is filled with the
flying snowdust- He once told me that
he was of a Scandinavian ancestry, and

mead Do you know how the sap runs

was very like the clear current of his
verse. He combined brightness with
elastic strength. His mind appeared to
me to have a tough elasticity, like the

We feel inclined to stretch because
the muscles of the body are in a
fatigued state, and by stretching we
seem to awaken them co the proper
tone for renewed action. Moreover,
the muscles of respiration share in this
fatigue and perform sheir work imper.

as stretch, the mouth gapes and the
