ODE TO THE NORTH-EAST WIND.

WELCOME, wild North-easter!Shame it is to see Odes to every zephyr;Ne'er a verse to thee. Welcome, black North-easter!O'er the German foam; O'er the Danish moorlands,From thy frozen home. Tired we are of summer,Tired of gaudy glare, Showers soft and steaming,Hot and breathless air.
