To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;

To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter

Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,

Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place

And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.
