O Winter! ruler of the inverted year, . . . I crown thee king of intimate delights, Fireside enjoyments, home-born happiness, And all the comforts that the lowly roof Of undisturbed Retirement, and the hours Of long uninterrupted evening, know.
As if the world and they were hand and glove.
A life of ease is a difficult pursuit.
God moves in mysterious ways His wonders to performs
Happy the man who sees a God employed in all the good and ills that checker life.
Variety's the very spice of life, That gives it all its flavor.
