Snow.
It snowed yesterday today, the whitest snow
I ever saw. And white the low
of distant cattle dies away;
as on this cold, cold, snow they lay
Themselves, to slumber through the night,
The moon comes out, & with its brilliant light,
The snowflakes sparkles like some silvery jewels.

Homework
Oh, where are my pencil, & my books?
I cannot see them for all the looks
I cast about the room.
Ah, at last, there is my satchel.
(I’ve to write an essay to match all,
How Thisbe went to Ninny’s tomb).
I’ve to learn the Past Historic tense,
Then endings, and hence,
To write out all the regular verbs.
For Botany, that study of all herbs
and plants, there is a page
Blank, where I shall draw the Sage.
