The steed and traveler stopped, the [courier’s feet]

[Delayed], all friends shut out, the housemates sit

Around the [radiant fireplace], enclosed

In a [tumultuous privacy] of storm.

Come, see the [north wind’s masonry].

Out of an unseen quarry evermore

Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer

Curves his white bastions with projected roof

Round every windward stake, or tree, or door.

Speeding, the [myriad-handed], his wild work
