Song: “Where the bee sucks, there suck I” By William Shakespeare (from The Tempest)
Where the bee sucks, there suck I: In a cowslip’s bell I lie; There I couch when owls do cry. On the bat’s back I do fly After summer merrily. Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
William Shakespeare |
