Why linger in old Winters lap?
Why round you icy garments wrap
And hoydeu-like the zephyrs slap
When warmth and roses they will bring

Why should / raise my voice to sing,
When from old Winters thawing knees
You send biting bit of breeze
That hits me in the b. V. DIS?

Or carol forth a roundelay,
When gentle Spring, you want your

And still in Winters arm you cling,
And won't come in the fields to play?
