Excerpt
Excerpt: SONGS OF INNOCENCE; INTRODUCTION -- Piping down the valleys wild, Piping songs of pleasant glee, On a cloud I saw a child, And he laughing said to me: ??Pipe a song about a Lamb!?? So I piped with merry cheer. ??Piper, pipe that song again;?? So I piped: he wept to hear. ??Drop thy pipe, thy happy pipe; Sing thy songs of happy cheer!?? So I sang the same again, While he wept with joy to hear. ??Piper, sit thee down and write In a book, that all may read.?? So he vanish?d from my sight; And I pluck?d a hollow reed, And I made a rural pen, And I stain?d the water clear, And I wrote my happy songs Every child may joy to hear.
