The Throne of Winter

Read "The Throne of Winter" at The Eldritch Dark:

This is a minor item from the poetic oeuvre of Clark Ashton Smith.  About the only thing that stands out for me from this sonnet is the phrase "the West's stupendous coronet" describing mountainous peaks, which is effective even if the word "stupendous" is a wee bit overwrought.
