Drapes ermine robes as it hurries by,
On royal maples, proud and high.

And soon in fleecy. heaps it lies;.
Silently it falls—yet swift and sure—

ONTARIO SNOWSTORIVI
How thickly it falls, the soft, white
snow,
Hiding the trees and tie roofs below,
Dimming the windows of sonny roornS,
With shadows from the falling pinnies.
Clouds of snowflakes hurry down,
O'er homes in the country, and lyres
in town;
In sheltered spots, on high hills bleak,
Or kissing a school boys rosy cheek.
It whirls through hollow's and drifts ,
them full;
Rail fences don blankets like carded

Beneath the folds of enntraPping cowl.
