Rhyme Scheme: ABCA DEEE EFFE GHHG IJJK L HEFH HHEL EGLH EEEG LEHMThe time admits not flowers or leaves | A |
To deck the banquet Fiercely flies | B |
The blast of North and East and ice | C |
Makes daggers at the sharpen'd eaves | A |
- | |
And bristles all the brakes and thorns | D |
To yon hard crescent as she hangs | E |
Above the wood which grides and clangs | E |
Its leafless ribs and iron horns | E |
- | |
Together in the drifts that pass | E |
To darken on the rolling brine | F |
That breaks the coast But fetch the wine | F |
Arrange the board and brim the glass | E |
- | |
Bring in great logs and let them lie | G |
To make a solid core of heat | H |
Be cheerful minded talk and treat | H |
Of all things ev'n as he were by | G |
- | |
We keep the day with festal cheer | I |
With books and music Surely we | J |
Will drink to him whate'er he be | J |
And sing the songs he loved to hear | K |

Non hora myrto non violis sinit | H |
Nitere mensas Trux Aquilo foras | E |
Bacchatur ac passim pruina | F |
Tigna sagittifera coruscant | H |
- | |
Horretque saltus spinifer algidae | H |
Sub falce lunae dum nemori imminet | H |
Quod stridet illiditque costis | E |
Cornua jam vacuis honorum | L |
- | |
Ferrata nimbis praetereuntibus | E |
Ut incubent tandem implacido sali | G |
Qui curvat oras Tu Falernum | L |
Prome dapes strue dic coronent | H |
- | |
Crateras ignis cor solidum graves | E |
Repone truncos Jamque doloribus | E |
Loquare securus fugatis | E |
Quae socio loquereris illo | G |
- | |
Hunc dedicamus laetitiae diem | L |
Lyraeque musisque Illius illius | E |
Da quicquid audit nec silebunt | H |
Qui numeri placuere vivo | M |
