wintertide ['wɪntətaɪd] nstresses
gen. зимний сезон (Kosarar); зимняя пора (Kosarar); зима (Wintertide is a literary term for wintertime. The tide of wintertide is from an Old English word meaning time or hour. One stanza of the poem "Diffugere Nives," a poem of Horace translated by A. E. Housman, features the term. Thaw follows frost; hard on the heel of spring Treads summer sure to die, for hard on hers Comes autumn with his apples scattering; Then back to wintertide, when nothing stirs.
