MORNING.
Reading edition
ULLO!' the Blackbird carolled. 'Hullo!' the Woods replied, 'The sun that set in the West last night Comes up on the other side.' 'Wake! wake!' the Starling chattered, 'For the hand of rising day Has gripped one edge of the blanket night And is rolling it all away.' 'Up! up!' the Robin whistled, 'For the Lady Dawn, so bright, Has come to the broad, dark face of earth, And is washing it all with light.' 'Out! out!' sang the joyous chorus: 'With a hand of magic care, She's been to the nooks and corners dark And scrubbed out the shadows there.' And then upon snowy pillows There glittered the blinking sun, And a thousand thousand eyes awoke To another day begun.
