This is the farmer's leisure, if he can be said ever to have any. And yet there is enough to do. There's the wood-pile to look out for. There are the cows, the pigs, and the poultry to be fed,

To the chill winds that waft us on to death,
But ruling calmly every pulse it warms,
And tempering gently every word it forms.
