COMMENTARY
In a similar manner to its companion piece, this song features an illustrative remote modulation at the halfway point. The text painting occurs most strikingly when the music abruptly modulates from D♭ back to D Major at the point in the text where his lover smiled and “the sun shone through” the wintry gloom.
