The spider is spinning


Theres a chirp in the hedge 
Where the primroses grow 
Theres a song in the sedge 
Where the grasshoppers go 
The hedge sparrow there has her dwelling begun 
& the spider is spinning his home in the sun

Theres a hum in the air 
Theres a song in the rain 
All these features so rare 
Shall we know them again
The pilewort & daisy are on the green bank
Hid by the dead grass tufts all withered & rank
