"They say the balloon
Is gone up to the moon!"
Blow, wind, blow! and |
Evening red and morning gray
Sets the traveller on his way.
When the wind is in the east,
'T is good for neither man nor beast;
When the wind is in the north,
The skilful fisher goes not forth;
When the wind is in the south,
It blows the bait in the fishes' mouth.
When the wind is in the west,
Then't is at the very best.
