Happy In Haou

*
"The Book of Odes", by L. Cranmer-Byng, [1908],

p. 42

"Happy In Haou\"

Fishes are there, by the score, I trow,

Their large heads sleepily showing;

The King is here, in the city of Haou,

At ease while the wine-cup's flowing.

Fishes are there in the weeds enow,

Their long tails lazily swaying;

The King is here, in the city of Haou,

Drinking, dreaming, delaying.

The fish lie under the willow bough

That leans and shadows the rushes;

The King is here, in the city of Haou,

At peace, and the wine-cup blushes.
