THE WIND OF THE WORLD.

George MacDonald

Chained is the Spring. The Night-wind bold Blows over the hard earth; Time is not more confused and cold, Nor keeps more wintry mirth.

Yet blow, and roll the world about — Blow, Time, blow, winter's Wind! Through chinks of time heaven peepeth out, And Spring the frost behind.
