This winter has given them a lot to do.

This year the mild winter gave us a head start on the tradition.

And many a winter before this house had given me exactly what I asked of it.

Two days passed and winter gave way to spring, and it all began again.

Now that winter had given way to spring, the rain had pretty much stopped.

As the vicious winter finally gave way to the brighter, warmer days of spring fresh news reached Call.

But the southern winter was opening, and already gave signs of its approach.

Although it was only September, winter was giving its warning.

The first snows were already falling and, if people had wanted a war, then the winter had given them one.

Normal winter gives us snow every couple of weeks, not day after day.
