MERRY IT IS (MODERN VERSION) by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "MERRY IT IS, WHILE THE SUMMER LAST, / WITH BIRDS IN SONG"
Last Line: "AND I, BEING DONE SO GREAT A WRONG, / SORROW AND MOURN AND FAST"
Subject(s): WINTER;
Merry it is, while the summer last,
With birds in song.
But now it's on us, the wintry blast
And weather strong.
Oh! how the night is long!
And I, being done so great a wrong,
Sorrow and mourn and fast.
