The Mad Prince's Song




Who said, 'Peacock Pie?'
The old King to the sparrow:
Who said, 'Crops are ripe?'
Rust to the harrow:

Who said, 'Where sleeps she now?'
Where rests she now her head,
Bathed in eve's loveliness'? ---
That's what I said.

Who said, 'Ay, mum's the word'?
Sexton to willow:
Who said, 'Green duck for dreams,
Moss for a pillow'?

Who said, 'All Time's delight
Hath she for narrow bed;
Life's troubled bubble broken'? ---
That's what I said.
