| HENCE, rude Winter! crabbed old fellow, | | | Never merry, never mellow! | | | Well-a-day! in rain and snow | | | What will keep one’s heart aglow? | | | Groups of kinsmen, old and young, | 5 | | Oldest they old friends among; | | | Groups of friends, so old and true | | | That they seem our kinsmen too; | | | These all merry all together | | | Charm away chill Winter weather. | 10 | | | | What will kill this dull old fellow? | | | Ale that ’s bright, and wine that ’s mellow! | | | Dear old songs for ever new; | | | Some true love, and laughter too; | | | Pleasant wit, and harmless fun, | 15 | | And a dance when day is done. | | | Music, friends so true and tried, | | | Whisper’d love by warm fireside, | | | Mirth at all times all together, | | | Make sweet May of Winter weather. |
