[00:05.07] I sang that song on Sunday,
[00:08.99] To witch an idle while,
[00:13.42] I sang that song on Monday,
[00:17.20] As fittest to beguile;
[00:21.24] I sang it as the year outwore,
[00:25.36] And the new slid in;
[00:29.85] I thought not what might shape before
[00:33.72] Another would begin.
[00:38.70]
[00:42.58] I sang that song in summer,
[00:46.41] All unforeknowingly,
[00:50.08] To him as a new-comer
[00:53.70] From regions strange to me:
[00:57.73] I sang it when in afteryears
[01:01.77] The shades stretched out,
[01:05.95] And paths were faint; and flocking fears
[01:10.43] Brought cup-eyed care and doubt.
[01:15.11]
[01:22.32] Sings he that song on Sundays
[01:25.55] In some dim land afar,
[01:29.82] On Saturdays, or Mondays,
[01:33.86] As when the evening star
[01:37.33] Glimpsed in upon his bending face
[01:42.32] And my hanging hair,
[01:50.05] And time untouched me with a trace
[01:53.82] Of soul-smart or despair?
