At such times， locked away inside wall and woolen， lulled by the sedatives of wood-smoke and candlelight， we recall the competing claims of nature． We see the branch and bark of trees， rather than the sugar-scented green of their leaves． We look out the window and admire the elegance of ice crystal， the bravely patient tree leaning leafless into the wind， the dramatic shadows of the stooping sun． We look at the structure of things， the geometry of branch and snowflake， family and deed．
Even before the first snow， we view the world differently in winter． We watch the lawn settle into the sleep of frost and the last crumpled leaf quiver on the oak， and feel the change． At night the skies are cold and clear， and stars shine like the
dreams of serpents． The hillsides turn brown and gray； the edges of stalk and blade stand out starkly． Dark clouds settle on the mountain ridges． Storms rumble in like freight trains． Rain rattles the roof and thutters at the window．
译文：在这样的时节里，我们紧闭房门，裹上毛衣，沐浴在木材燃烧和烛光带来的祥和之中，回想大自然中的两种悖论。我们看到的是树木的枝杈和树皮，而不是芬芳扑鼻的绿叶；我们望着窗外，惊叹冰晶的美不胜收，钦佩光秃秃的树枝始终迎风而立，赞美落日的身影楚楚动人；我们观察着事物的结构、树枝与雪花的形状，还有家庭、事业……
其实在冬天，在下第一场雪之前，我们看世界的感觉就不同。我们注意到草地早已习惯在霜冻中沉睡，最后一片打着卷儿的橡树叶在枝头颤抖，并体会到了季节的变更。晚空清冷而明朗，繁星闪烁，就像魔鬼打起了盹。山坡被染成了棕灰色，叶子与叶柄的边缘显得格外醒目。山脊上乌云云集，暴风雪就像货车一样隆隆作响。雨点不停地冲刷着房顶，敲打着窗户。
