1. Prologue: The Pine in Winter
The pine stays green in winter; wisdom in hardship.

2. Winter’s Dance
They that sing in summer must dance in winter.

3. Cold Comfort
Those who don’t pick roses in the summer, won’t pick them in winter, either.

4. How Long the Winter
O wind, can spring be far?
No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow.
If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
Oh, when the winds begin to sing,
The snow melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing.
No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow.
When winter comes, can spring be far behind?
