[Nox is the night]
Nox
is the night,
When up in the sky
The bright twinkling stars
And moon you may spy.
When up in the sky
The bright twinkling stars
And moon you may spy.
Nux is a nut
Which grows on a tree;
By cracking the shell
The kernel you see.
Which grows on a tree;
By cracking the shell
The kernel you see.
Nix is the snow
Which covers the ground,
When trees have no leaves,
And flowers are not found.
Which covers the ground,
When trees have no leaves,
And flowers are not found.
