First Line: There is sleet and snow
Last Line: And the fire on my hearth gleams red.
Subject(s): Candles; Winter
There is sleet and snow,
There is wind and rain,
It is dreary and cold tonight,
Yet, gallantly still, at my window-pane,
My candle is burning, bright.
The wind blows cold,
It is dark and chill,
And the clouds loom overhead,
Yet my brave little candle shineth, still,
And the fire on my hearth gleams red.
