Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEEFGFGHFHFGG IIG| March is slain the keen winds fly | A |
| Nothing more is thine to do | B |
| April kisses thee good bye | A |
| Thou must haste and follow too | B |
| Silent friend that guarded well | C |
| Withered things to make us glad | D |
| Shyest friend that could not tell | C |
| Half the kindly thought he had | D |
| Haste thee speed thee O kind snow | E |
| Down the dripping valleys go | E |
| From the fields and gleaming meadows | F |
| Where the slaying hours behold thee | G |
| From the forests whose slim shadows | F |
| Brown and leafless cannot fold thee | G |
| Through the cedar lands aflame | H |
| With gold light that cleaves and quivers | F |
| Songs that winter may not tame | H |
| Drone of pines and laugh of rivers | F |
| May thy passing joyous be | G |
| To thy father the great sea | G |
| For the sun is getting stronger | I |
| Earth hath need of thee no longer | I |
| Go kind snow God speed to thee | G |
