In scenes like these it may be though, + 

Ye feel but little interest, + 

They are all natural and low, + 

Are not with elegance impressed. + 

Another bard with art divine + 

Hath pictured in his gorgeous line + 

The first appearance of the snows + 

And all the joys which Winter knows. + 

He will delight you, I am sure, + 

When he in ardent verse portrays + 

Secret excursions made in sleighs; + 

But competition I abjure + 

Either with him or thee in song, + 

Bard of the Finnish maiden young. + 
