IN THE WOOD.
Let now the cold snowOn the earth stay to comfort mc; And now come in AH friendly, furry things That are my company. O Sun, Look coldly like a hollow glass! O Moon, A frozen flower be ! Sun and Moon, * Melt not the cold, cold snow, And let no human tblng Come near to mc ; Only the wood's sad company. That takes the chill of snow Exultantly! O friendly, fuiry things. What does the cold, cold snow Do for us? Does it not lie One day in a deep drift over us? We Dreamless in »ur own company? _—Ena Limebeer.
