Nature shall thrill with new delight,

And Time's relumined river run

Warm as young blood, and dazzling bright,

As if its source were in the sun!

But say, hath Winter then no charms?

Is there no joy, no gladness warms

His aged heart? no happy wiles

To cheat the hoary one to smiles?

Onward he comes—the cruel North

Pours his furious whirlwind forth
