There's q wOndeEh-l weaver
High M in til3 air,
And he wcavcs q " bite mantle
For cold earth tn wear.
With the wind for his shuttle.
The c'oud for his loom,
How lro yeaves, how he woaves,
In the light, in the gloom!
Oh! with finest Of lGccs
lie decks bush ana tree;
On the bare, hin.y meadows
4 covert lays he.
Then q quaint cap he places
On pillar and post;
And he changes the pump
To a grim, silent ghost!
But this wonderful weaver
Grows weary al last;
And the shuttle lies Idle
That once few SO fast.
Then the suu peeps abroad
On the work that is done;
And he smiles: "I'li rnrayel
