And lay his store of honey by,
To eat in winter hours?
'Twas God who showed them all the way,
And gave them all their skill;
He teaches children, if they pray,
To do his holy will.
WINTER SPORT.
Down, down the hill how swift I go!
Over the ice, and over the snow;
A horse or cart I do not fear.
For past them both my sled I steer.
