Correct my peice of writing.
I have written the following peice of text. Let me know in case I have made mistakes.
I can clearly remember (a/one) freezing night. I was looking at the clock , coz I knew a few ours (were/ had been) left (to/till) the crack of dawn.The howlings of (the) wolves could be heard (from/within) the heart of the mountain. Once I opened the door, the (cries/howlings) of blizzard had me close it again. I cleaned the steam off the the only window of our small room, but I couldn't see anything (through/in) the darkness except for a (feeble/ faint/dim) stream of light (flickering / twinkiling /glittering / shimmering) from the distant.
Thanks in advance.
