MARCH SNOW.

G. Benson in The London Spectator.
The world. that had begun 20 stir
And glitter, lies a-Cod:
The ledge is lined with frosty fur,
The mimic drift is rolled.
My thrush fulfilled with innocent meat,
That has begun 10 sing
SO strenuous slow - careful sweet,
Sits silent, wondering.
Ny heart. that had begun 10 bud
And blossom. lies a-cold;
The merry impulse Of the blood
In sulen tide is rolled.
A little thing. a bitter thing
From bleakest storm clouds hurled
Ny God, lead on Thy gracious spring
In heart, and home, and world.
