Explore "The First of May" by Felix Leigh on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Chimney Sweeps' Day, Blackbird is gay,
Here he is singing, you see, in the "May." / He has feathers as black as a chimney sweep's coat, / So on Chimney Sweeps' Day he must pipe a glad note.
Jack-in-the-Green from door to door / Capers along with his followers four. / As May Day mummers are seldom seen, / Let us all give a copper to Jack-in-the-Green.
