"Ah, how short are the days! How soon the night overtakes us! / In the old country the twilight is longer; but here in the forest / Suddenly comes the dark, with hardly a pause in its coming, / Hardly a moment between the two lights, the day and the lamplight; / Yet how grand is the winter! How spotless the snow is, and perfect!"
