Author: Joel Chandler Harris [More Titles by Harris]

"'Now on this bobbin I wind a hair,
White, and silken, and long;
I wind it slow, I wind it fair,
Glossy, and white, and strong.

"'I wind it here in shade and sun,
For one, one, one are three--
Three and no more where the stag shall run,
Close by the chestnut-tree.

"'And one shall catch, and two shall hold,
And three shall clamp and kill;
Just say to your hand, Be steady and bold;
And say to your heart, I will.'

[The end]
