Poems by William Barnes
The Weather-Beaten Tree
... An' leaves, an' young vo'k vull o' glee ...
The Flood In Spring
... Wi' raïny storms that zent the zwollèn streams ...
The Shepherd O The Farm
... The bleäten sheep, an' pitch their vwold ...
Jennys Ribbons
... Call'd out an' bid her not staÿ leäte, ...
Easter Monday
... An' weigh'd ourzelves wi' sceäles an' waïghts ...
When Birds Be Still
... Where night do drown the beeches' sheädes, ...
My Orchad In Linden Lea
... An brown-leavd fruits a-turnen red, ...
The Hedger
... Did let the slow-wheel'd plough roll drough ...
Bob The Fiddler
... An' meäke em dance the groun' dirt-beäre, ...
A Zong Of Harvest Hwome
... Here's health to them that plough'd an' zow'd ...
The Bean Vield
... "Ah! ah!" thought he, the seäme's the bee, ...
Grammer A-Crippled
... Since 'tis God's will, an' mus' be well ...
The Brook That Ran By Gramfers
... But vound the strëam so deep an' strong, ...
What Dick An I Did
... The maïdens cough'd or stopp'd their breath, ...
Sweet Music In The Wind
... O' moonlight nights, vrom tree to tree, ...
