What do you grind, O ye maidens? Sandalwood, henna, and spice. What do you call , O ye pedlars? Chessmen and ivory dice. What do you make,O ye goldsmiths? Wristlet and anklet and ring, Bells for the feet of  blue  pigeons Frail as a  dragon -fly-s  wing , Girdles of  gold  for dancers, Scabbards of gold for the  king . What do you cry,O ye fruitmen?

What do you weave, O ye  flower -girls With tassels of azure and  red ? ...
