Versos English W. B. Yeats Fool

English poem

Fool

by

Listen in the reader

Give me a penny, give me a penny.

FIRST PUPIL (singing)

'I'll find your wits again, Come, for I saw them roll, To where old badger mumbles In the black hole.'

SECOND PUPIL (singing)

'No, but an angel stole them The night that you were born, And now they are but a rag, On the moon's horn.'
