Who saw the fences falling
|
Who broke the ploughman's bread
|
Who heard the winter calling
|
Who wore the tailor's thread
|
How many sheaves were counted
|
How did the carriage shine
|
How many thoughts were doubted
|
How did the landlord dine
|
Just as you sow you shall reap
|
Who led the mayday feasting
|
Who saw the harvest home
|
Who left the future wasting
|
Who watched the families go
|
See where the bowls are empty
|
See where the arms reach
|
See where the butter melted
|
See where the altars creak
|
Where were the days of promise
|
Where were the gifts divine
|
Where were the heroes honest
|
Where was the summer wine
|
Watch how the waves must shatter
|
Watch how the shore divides
|
Watch how the nets will tatter
|
Watch Canute and his bride
|
