Rhyme Scheme: ABCDCECE FGFGHIChildren of wealth in your warm nursery | A |
Set in the cushioned window seat to watch | B |
The volleying snow guarded invisibly | C |
By the clear double pane through which no touch | D |
Untimely penetrates you cannot tell | C |
What winter means its cruel truths to you | E |
Are only sound and sight your citadel | C |
Is safe from feeling and from knowledge too | E |

Go down go out to elemental wrong | F |
Waste your too round limbs tan your skin too white | G |
The glass of comfort ignorance seems strong | F |
To day and yet perhaps this very night | G |
You'll wake to horror's wrecking fire your home | H |
Is wired within for this in every room | I |
