I	A
	-
The sky has turned its heart away	B
The earth its sorrow found	C
The daisies turn from childhood's play	B
And creep into the ground	C
	-
The earth is black and cold and hard	D
Thin films of dry white ice	E
Across the rugged wheel tracks barred	D
The children's feet entice	E
	-
Dark flows the stream as if it mourned	F
The winter in the land	G
With idle icicles adorned	F
That mill wheel soon will stand	G
	-
But friends to say 'tis cold and part	H
Is to let in the cold	I
We'll make a summer of the heart	H
And laugh at winter old	I
	-
II	A
	-
With vague dead gleam the morning white	J
Comes through the window panes	K
The clouds have fallen all the night	J
Without the noise of rains	K
	-
As of departing unseen ghost	L
Footprints go from the door	M
The man himself must long be lost	N
Who left those footprints hoar	M
	-
Yet follow thou tread down the snow	O
Leave all the road behind	P
Heed not the winds that steely blow	O
Heed not the sky unkind	P
	-
For though the glittering air grow dark	Q
The snow will shine till morn	R
And long ere then one dear home spark	Q
Will winter laugh to scorn	R
	-
III	A
	-
Oh wildly wild the roaring blast	S
Torments the fallen snow	O
The wintry storms are up at last	S
And care not how they go	O
	-
In foam like wreaths the water hoar	M
Rapt whistling in the air	T
Gleams through the dismal twilight frore	T
A region in despair	T
	-
A spectral ocean lies outside	U
Torn by a tempest dark	Q
Its ghostly billows dim descried	U
Leap on my stranded bark	Q
	-
Death sheeted figures long and white	U
Rave driving through the spray	T
Or bosomed in the ghastly night	U
Shriek doom cries far away	T
	-
IV	V
	-
A morning clear with frosty light	U
From sunbeams late and low	O
They shine upon the snow so white	U
And shine back from the snow	O
	-
Down tusks of ice one drop will go	O
Nor fall at sunny noon	W
'Twill hang a diamond fade and grow	O
An opal for the moon	W
	-
And when the bright sad sun is low	O
Behind the mountain dome	X
A twilight wind will come and blow	O
Around the children's home	X
	-
And puff and waft the powdery snow	O
As feet unseen did pass	Y
While waiting in its bed below	O
Green lies the summer grass	Y
