Come snow where fly by some strange law | Y |
Hard snowballs without noise | Z |
Through streets untenanted except | A2 |
By good unconscious boys | Z |

Come fog exultant mystery | E |
Where in strange darkness rolled | B2 |
The end of my own nose becomes | C2 |

Sleet fire and general fuss | C2 |
Come to my arms come all at once | C2 |
Oh photograph me thus | C2 |
