e sits sighing,And under the willow tree One sits crying :- Under the ivy bush Cease from your sighing,But under the willow tree Lie down a-dying. 72 I am a King, Or an Emperor rather,I wear crown-imperial And princes-feather ;Golden-rod is the sceptre I wield and wag,And a broad purple flag-flower… … There is one that has a head without an eye,And there s one that has an eye without a head : You may find the answer if you try ; And when all is said,Half the answer hangs upon a thread ! 74
