Poem by William Morris

The Flowering Orchard

Silk Embroidery.

Lo silken my garden,
and silken my sky,
And silken my apple-boughs
hanging on high;
All wrought by the Worm
in the peasant carle’s cot
On the Mulberry leafage
when summer was hot! 

1. All For The Cause
2. The Burgher's Battle
3. The Doomed Ship
4. The Son's Sorrow
5. From the Upland to the Sea
