The wind upon a summer day / How sweet it is! The shaking trees, / The shifting shadows as they lie / Across the grass, the bending rye, / The blue flowers in the grain, -- and you / To love the livelong summer through -- / There are no sweeter things than these.

The dawning of a winter day / How sad it is! The leafless trees, / The frozen meadow lands that lie / Leaden beneath a snowy sky; / The old year's bitterness, -- and you / To lack the livelong winter through -- / There are no sadder things than these.
