Remember, Remember
English Folk Verse (c.1870) - The Fifth of November Remember, remember! The fifth of November, The Gunpowder treason and plot; I know of no reason Why the Gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot! That's the only portion of this poem I have known up until now, however this year I came across the rest which I have to say I am not in complete agreeance with. Guy Fawkes and his companions Did the scheme contrive, To blow the King and Parliament All up alive. Threescore barrels, laid below, To prove old England's overthrow. But, by God's providence, him they catch, With a dark lantern, lighting a match! A stick and a stake...
Very lovely colors...something that one could look at forever and not grow tired.

ReplyDelete(I have been very disappointed that BBC4 have not had a John Martyn night yet. What do you think?)
So peaceful. Thumbs up!
ReplyDeleteHey All! Thanks for your comments. These trees are outside our house and they are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteBabooshka, I always find myself disappointed with tributes to our lost stars. Mike Harding did a tribute show to John Martyn on Radio 2 a few weeks back but that seems to have been it. Have you seen anything else yet?
