'Twas just this time last year I died | B |
I know I heard the Corn | C |
When I was carried by the Farms | D |
It had the Tassels on | E |
- | |
I thought how yellow it would look | F |
When Richard went to mill | G |
And then I wanted to get out | H |
But something held my will | G |
- | |
I thought just how Red Apples wedged | I |
The Stubble's joints between | J |
And the Carts stooping round the fields | K |
To take the Pumpkins in | L |
- | |
I wondered which would miss me least | M |
And when Thanksgiving came | N |
If Father'd multiply the plates | O |
To make an even Sum | P |
- | |
And would it blur the Christmas glee | Q |
My Stocking hang too high | R |
For any Santa Claus to reach | S |
The Altitude of me | Q |
- | |
But this sort grieved myself | T |
And so I thought the other way | U |
How just this time some perfect year | V |
Themself should come to me | Q |
