    “Out of the bosom of the Air,
    Out of the cloud-folds of her garments shaken,
    Over the woodlands brown and bare,
    Over the harvest-fields forsaken,
    Silent, and soft, and slow
    Descends the snow.”

    Long in its cloudy bosom hoarded,
    Now whispered and revealed
    To wood and field.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
