Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGAHF IJKLLOut of their slumber Europeans spun | A |
Dense dreams appeasements miracle glimpsed flash | B |
Of a new golden era but could not restrain | C |
The vertical white weight that fell last night | D |
And made their continent a blank | E |

Hush says the sameness of the snow | F |
The Ural and Jura now rejoin | G |
The furthest Arctic's desolation All is one | A |
Sheer monotone plain mountain country town | H |
Contours and boundaries no longer show | F |

The warring flags hang colourless a while | I |
Now midnight's icy zero feigns a truce | J |
Between the signs and seasons and fades out | K |
All shots and cries But when the great thaw comes | L |
How red shall be the melting snow how loud the drums | L |
