THE MOUNTAIN SNOW.

George Borrow translation

The mountain snow: the stag doth fly, The wind about the roofs doth sigh. Love cannot in concealment lie.

The mountain snow: the grove is dark, The raven black; the hound doth bark. God keep you from all evil work.

The mountain snow: the crust is sound; The wind doth twist the reeds around. Where ignorance is, no grace is found.
