THE JOYS OF WINTER.
Reading edition
Hurrah for the joys of winter! For the jolly sparkling weather, For the lake like glass where the skaters pass, For the flying flake and feather! Hurrah for the fun of rushing Down the long toboggan slide, For the dash ahead of the winning sled Round the curve of the steep hill-side! Hurrah for the joys of winter! Jack Frost and the boys are friends; To the girl's bright face what a witching grace The touch of his pencil lends! Hurrah for the wild northwester, And the crisp cold wintry night When the rough wind blows and we toast our toes In the glow of the hearth-fire's light!
