Quote by George Eliot
Perhaps the wind Wails so in winter for the summers dead, And all sad sounds are nature's funeral cries For what has been and is not.
Summary
This quote suggests that the wailing of the wind in winter symbolizes the mourning of the seasons that have passed. The sad sounds heard in nature are portrayed as funeral cries, signaling the death or absence of something that once existed. It reflects the cycle of life and the inevitable change and loss that occurs in the natural world.
