JACK FROST

The Frost looked forth on a still, clear night,

And whispered, “Now, I shall be out of sight;

So through the valley and over the height

In silence I’ll take my way.

I will not go on like that blustering train,

The wind and the snow, the hail and the rain,

That make such a bustle and noise in vain;

But I’ll be as busy as they!”
