And grim Jack Frost Is free.
And whining winds do shrilly scold
Through streets and signing tree.
Homeward bound hurry fast
In trolley oars forlorn
Unto my fiat where care In past

And pour the butter on;
Like snow the fluffy dainties be.
And now like snow they're gonei
But more is ready. Peggy cries;
She shakes a PIentys Horn
What blooming cheeks. what shining eyes
When Peggy pops the corni
And back my memory pensive goes
To country nights OF old,
or biting frost and flying snow
And whining winds a-scold.
But times are better now for I

May take kiss. not vainiy try,
