[00:13.37]This is the weather the cuckoo likes,
[00:17.31]And so do I;
[00:20.28]When showers betumble the chestnut spikes,
[00:24.61]And nestlings fly;
[00:28.73]And the little brown nightingale bills his best,
[00:33.17]And they sit outside at 'The Traveller's Rest,'
[00:37.34]And maids come forth sprig-muslin drest,
[00:41.06]And citizens dream of the south and west,
[00:49.72]And so do I.

[01:04.87]This is the weather the shepherd shuns,
[01:09.10]And so do I;
[01:13.93]When beeches drip in browns and duns,
[01:18.51]And thresh and ply;
[01:24.50]And hill-hid tides throb, throe on throe,
[01:29.09]And meadow rivulets overflow,
[01:32.86]And drops on gate bars hang in a row,
[01:38.14]And rooks in families homeward go,
[01:45.70]And so do I.
