<poem>
Cold is the air,
The woods are bare
And brown; the herd
Stand in the yard.
The frost doth fall;
And round the hill
The hares move slow;
The homeward crow,
Alone and high,
Crosses the sky
All silently.


::Cold is the air,
The quick streams freeze;
::The woods are bare
The moving trees
::And brown; the herd
Are still; for now
::Stand in the yard.
No breeze will blow:
::The frost doth fall;
The wind has gone
::And round the hill
With the day, down,
::The hares move slow;
And clouds are come
::The homeward crow,
Bearing the gloom.
::Alone and high,
The yellow grass
::Crosses the sky
In the clear glass
::All silently.
Of the bright pool
<br>
Grows soft and dull.
 
::The quick streams freeze;
::The moving trees
::Are still; for now
::No breeze will blow:
::The wind has gone
::With the day, down,
::And clouds are come
::Bearing the gloom.
::The yellow grass
::In the clear glass
::Of the bright pool
::Grows soft and dull.
<br>
 
::The water's eye
::That held the sky
::Now glazes quite;
::And now the light
::On the cold hill
::Fadeth, until
::The giant mass
::Doth seem to pass
::From near to far;
::The clouds obscure
::The sky with gloom:
::The night is come,
::The night is come.
<br>

The water's eye
That held the sky
Now glazes quite;
And now the light
On the cold hill
Fadeth, until
The giant mass
Doth seem to pass
From near to far;
The clouds obscure
The sky with gloom:
The night is come,
The night is come.

Cold is the air,
The woods are bare
And brown; the herd
Stand in the yard.
The frost doth fall;
And round the hill
The hares move slow;
The homeward crow,
Alone and high,
Crosses the sky
All silently.

The quick streams freeze;
The moving trees
Are still; for now
No breeze will blow:
The wind has gone
With the day, down,
And clouds are come
Bearing the gloom.
The yellow grass
In the clear glass
Of the bright pool
Grows soft and dull.

The water's eye
That held the sky
Now glazes quite;
And now the light
On the cold hill
Fadeth, until
The giant mass
Doth seem to pass
From near to far;
The clouds obscure
The sky with gloom:
The night is come,
The night is come.
