II. I saw the days of winter come, bewitching, cold and keen, But then the sleet beat fast and hard against the panes of light, The sunshine all had disappeared, the twilight turned to night. And everywhere The bitter air Gave forth a chill and blight. III. I felt the piercing winds of March invading every nook, I saw the stalwart, bare-limbed trees, the silent, ice-bound brook. Then nature smiled a glad surprise and, summoning all her powers, Burst into radiance and to life from all her sleeping hours, And gave to earth A glad rebirth, And brought the springtime flowers.
