<pre><font size='+2'>THE MUMMERS DANCE lyrics LOREENA MCCENNITT</font><br>By Alfred Lord Tennyson (1843)<br />
<br />
On either side the river lie<br />
Long fields of barley and of rye,<br />
That clothe the wold and meet the sky;<br />
And thro` the field the road run by<br />
To many-towered Camelot;<br />
And up and down the people go,<br />
Gazing where the lilies blow<br />
Round an island there below,<br />
The island of Shalott.<br />
<br />
Willows whiten, aspens quiver,<br />
Little breezes dusk and shiver<br />
Thro` the wave that runs for ever<br />
By the island in the river<br />
Flowing down to Camelot.<br />
Four grey walls, and four grey towers,<br />
Overlook a space of flowers,<br />
And the silent isle imbowers<br />
The Lady of Shalott.<br />
<br />
Only reapers, reaping early,<br />
In among the beared barley<br />
Hear a song that echoes cheerly<br />
From the river winding clearly;<br />
Down to tower`d Camelot;<br />
And by the moon the reaper weary,<br />
Piling sheaves in uplands airy,<br />
Listening, whispers ``tis the fairy<br />
The Lady of Shalott.<br />
<br />
There she weaves by night and day<br />
A magic web with colours gay.<br />
She has heard a whisper say,<br />
A curse is on her if she stay<br />
To look down to Camelot.<br />
She knows not what the curse may be,<br />
And so she weaveth steadily,<br />
And little other care heat she,<br />
The Lady of Shalott.<br />
<br />
And moving through a mirror clear<br />
That hangs before her all the year,<br />
Shadows of the world appear.<br />
There she sees the highway near<br />
Winding down to Camelot;<br />
And sometimes thro` the mirror blue<br />
The knights come riding two and two.<br />
She hath no loyal Knight and true,<br />
The Lady of Shalott.<br />
<br />
But in her web she still delights<br />
To weave the mirror`s magic sights,<br />
For often thro` the silent nights<br />
A funeral, with plumes and lights<br />
And music, went to Camelot;<br />

By Alfred Lord Tennyson (1843)

On either side the river lie
Long fields of barley and of rye,
That clothe the wold and meet the sky;
And thro` the field the road run by
To many-towered Camelot;
And up and down the people go,
Gazing where the lilies blow
Round an island there below,
The island of Shalott.

Willows whiten, aspens quiver,
Little breezes dusk and shiver
Thro` the wave that runs for ever
By the island in the river
Flowing down to Camelot.
Four grey walls, and four grey towers,
Overlook a space of flowers,
And the silent isle imbowers
The Lady of Shalott.

Only reapers, reaping early,
In among the beared barley
Hear a song that echoes cheerly
From the river winding clearly;
Down to tower`d Camelot;
And by the moon the reaper weary,
Piling sheaves in uplands airy,
Listening, whispers ``tis the fairy
The Lady of Shalott.

There she weaves by night and day
A magic web with colours gay.
She has heard a whisper say,
A curse is on her if she stay
To look down to Camelot.
She knows not what the curse may be,
And so she weaveth steadily,
And little other care heat she,
The Lady of Shalott.

And moving through a mirror clear
That hangs before her all the year,
Shadows of the world appear.
There she sees the highway near
Winding down to Camelot;
And sometimes thro` the mirror blue
The knights come riding two and two.
She hath no loyal Knight and true,
The Lady of Shalott.

But in her web she still delights
To weave the mirror`s magic sights,
For often thro` the silent nights
A funeral, with plumes and lights
And music, went to Camelot;
Or when
