Which is the wind that brings the cold? The north wind, Freddy, and all the snow; And the sheep will scamper into the fold When the north begins to blow. Which is the wind that brings the heat? The south wind, Katy; and corn will grow, And peaches redden for you to eat, When the south begins to blow. Which is the wind that brings the rain? The east wind, Arty; and farmers know That cows come shivering up the lane, When the east begins to blow. Which is the wind that brings the flowers? The west wind, Bessy; and soft and low The birdies sing in the summer hours, When the west begins to blow. Iris flying, carrying a pitcher aloft Guy Head (Rome). |
