||
| Therefore all seasons shall be sweet to thee, | ||
| Whether the summer clothe the general earth | ||
| With greenness, or the redbreast sit and sing | ||
| Betwixt the tufts of snow on the bare branch | ||
| Of mossy apple-tree, while the nigh thatch | ||
| Smokes in the sun-thaw ; whether the eave-drops fall | ||
| Heard only in the trances of the blast, | ||
| Or if the secret ministry of frost | ||
| Shall hang them up in silent icicles, | ||
| Quietly shining to the quiet Moon. | ||
|
— Frost at Midnight, 1798 by British poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) |
