"Maitre Corbeau, sur un arbre perche." La Fontaine. It was so cold. Ah, so very cold!

"Maitre Corbeau, sur un arbre perche." La Fontaine. It was so cold. Ah, so very cold!

But to-day he was too depressed in spirit by the cold to think of his relations or their behaviour at all. He just hopped or hobbled-I hardly know which you would call it-slowly and solemnly up and down the long walk, where the snow lay so thick that at each hop it came ever so far up his black claws, which annoyed him very much, I assure you, and made him wish more than ever that summer was back again."
