Nature

The Sleep of Sigismund: XLV

by Jean Ingelow 1820–1897

From Poems by Jean Ingelow, In Two Volumes, Volume II.

Nature

Riseth a waft as of summer air,
Floating upon it what moveth there?
Faint as the light of stars and wan
As snow at night when the moon is gone,
It is the white-witch risen once more.
