A Tree Song by Rudyard Kipling — Read

(A. D. 1200)

Of all the trees that grow so fair, / Old England to adorn, / Greater are none beneath the Sun, / Than Oak, and Ash, and Thorn. / Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn, good sirs / (All of a Midsummer morn)! / Surely we sing no little thing, / In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn!
