In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow
in the bleak midwinter, long ago

Yes, to the very end."

Up-Hill

From morn to night, my friend. But is there for the night a resting-place? Shall I meet other wayfarers at night?
