A WINTER WEDDING.
Reading edition
When bleak, bluff, blatant blizzards blew, And hats from storm-tossed heads were carried, My enterprising friend, then you Got married! Soon spring had come, when doves can coo, And flowers blossom, had you tarried; Instead, in January you Got married. Then in your honeymoon you two The gloom and snow of winter parried; It's two to one two won when you Were married. And thus henceforward may you do; By life's rough storms be never harried, Together face them all now you Are married.
