Text Appearing Before Image: 98 CRILD LIFE.

Text Appearing After Image: WINTER. Old winter is a sturdy one, And lasting stuff hes made of : His flesli is fimi as ironstone,Tliere s nothing hes afraid of He spreads his coat upon the heatli,Nor y%t to warm it Ungers ; He scouts the thought of aching teeth,Or chilblains on his fingers. Of flowers that bloom or birds that sing.Full little cares or knows he ; He hates the fire, and hates the spring,And all thats warm and cosy. But when the fo.\es bark aloudOn frozen lake and river, — When round the fire the people crowd,And rub their hands and shiver, — OUT OF DOORS. 99 When frost is splitting stone and wall, And trees come crashing after,That hates he not, he loves it all, — Then bursts he out in laughter. His home is by the North Poles strand. Where earth and sea are frozen ;His summer-house, we understand, In Switzerland hes chosen. Now from the North hes hither hied, To show his strength and power ;And when he comes we stand aside, And look at him and cower. — From the Oervian.
