Publisher's Synopsis
One of two songs from Love's Labour's Lost, this short poem with its evocation of a harsh winter in early modern England is illustrated on each page with strong woodcut-like black and white pictures. When icicles hang by the wall,And Dicke the sheepheard blowes his naile;And Tom bears logges into the hall,And Milke comes frozen home in paile:When blood is nipt, and wayes be fowleThen nightly sings the staring OwleTu-whit to-who.
