A lovely poem -
'When Icicles Hang by the Wall" - by William Shakespeare
From Love's Labours Lost, Act V. Sc. II
When icicles hang by the wall
And Dick the shepherd blows his nail
And Tom bears logs into the hall
And milk comes frozen home in pail,
When blood is nipp'd and ways be foul,
When nightly sings the staring owl, Tu-whit;
Tu-who, a merry note,
While greasy Joan doth keel* the pot,
When all aloud the wind doth blow
And coughing drowns the parson's saw*
And birds sit brooding in the snow
And Marian's nose looks red and raw,
When roasted crabs* hiss in the bowl,
When nightly sings the staring owl, Tu-whit;
Tu-who, a merry note,
While greasy Joan doth keel the pot.
*keel = cool by stirring
*saw = moral statement or proverb
*crabs = crab apples
And Mozart's Piano Sonata no. 11 (mvmt 3 - the Turkish March)
