- | |
PUCK sings | B |
NOW the hungry lion roars | C |
And the wolf behowls the moon | D |
Whilst the heavy ploughman snores | C |
All with weary task fordone | D |
Now the wasted brands do glow | E |
Whilst the screech owl screeching loud | F |
Puts the wretch that lies in woe | E |
In remembrance of a shroud | F |
Now it is the time of night | G |
That the graves all gaping wide | H |
Every one lets forth his sprite | G |
In the churchway paths to glide | H |
And we fairies that do run | D |
By the triple Hecate's team | I |
From the presence of the sun | D |
Following darkness like a dream | I |
Now are frolic not a mouse | C |
Shall disturb this hallowed house | C |
I am sent with broom before | J |
To sweep the dust behind the door | J |
William Shakespeare
