"
But lo, the old inn, and the lights and the fire,
And the fiddler's old tune and the shuffling of feet;
Soon for us shall be quiet and rest and desire,
And to-morrow's uprising to deeds shall be sweet.
Footnotes
{1} After consulting various sources it is not clear as to whether "The
Message of the March Wind" was originally published with "Chants for
Socialists". Chants for Socialists consists of poems that Morris wrote
for various occasions and which were collected together and published by
the Socialist League in 1885. If any reader has access to the original
Chants I (David Price) would be very glad if you could clear up the
uncertainty on the exact contents.--David Price
