The Cloak, the Boat, and the Shoes
| ‘What do you make so fair and bright?’ | | | | | | ‘I make the cloak of Sorrow: | | O lovely to see in all men’s sight | | Shall be the cloak of Sorrow, | | In all men’s sight.’ | | | | | | ‘What do you build with sails for flight?’ | | | | | | ‘I build a boat
for Sorrow: | | O swift on the seas all day and night | | Saileth the rover Sorrow, | | All day and night.’ | | | | | | ‘What do
you weave with wool so white?’ | | | | | | ‘I weave the shoes of Sorrow: | | Soundless shall be the footfall light | | In all
men’s ears of Sorrow, | | Sudden and light.’ |
