WINTER, by                    
First Line: Wind over ice, snow across snow
Last Line: Who have fires by day and covers at night!
Subject(s): Winter


Wind over ice, snow across snow,
Old Hag Winter's breath doth blow.

Wretched and foul and bitterly cold,
Winter's a tale by a harlot told.

Some think it gay and blue and bright
Who have fires by day and covers at night!
