This one definitely gets a northern hemisphere bias for such vivid descriptions as "snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow." Also, composers famous for other things; Gustav Holst we've seen before with "Jupiter," and Christina Georgina Rossetti was an influential poet during the 1800s, she wrote on such pleasant topics as how life is a tiring journey but then you die.

There's at least one other verse that didn't make it into this version, which rhymes "maiden bliss" with "kiss" (in the context of Mary).
