Against the pane the snow drifts fast;
The cold night wind goes sobbing past.
Alone sit, and close my eyes,
And think, and long for summer skies
llhave yision-strangely sweet
A field of waving summer wheat;
Hills clothed in green from top to base;
A silver lake, across whose face
The breeze makes smiles, while to and fro
The white swans slow and stately go.
An orchard all aflush with bloom;
\ dark wood, and within Its gloom
\ thrush that sings once and again
Ills madiy sweet ecstatic strain;
lis answered by notes clear and strong,
And all the air is filed with song.
How the birds sing And well they may
Who would not sing on such day.

The dream is past wake alone,
| hear the cold winds angry moan;
And sob aloud, BE swift to bring,
