The Ploughboy’s Dream

The Ploughboy's Dream - Gryphon[00:00:00]

Written by:Traditional/David Oberle[00:00:01]

I am a ploughboy stout and strong as ever drove a team[00:00:22]

And three years since as I lay a bed I had a dreadful dream[00:00:29]

I dreamt I drove my master's team three horses travelled far[00:00:36]

Before a stiff and armoured plough as all my masters are[00:00:42]

I found the ground was baked so hard twas more like bricks than clay[00:00:52]

I could not cut my furrow through nor would my beasts obey[00:00:58]

The more I whipped and slashed and swore the less my horses tried[00:01:04]

Dobbin lay down and belle and star ignored my threats and cries[00:01:11]

Till low above me appeared a youth he seemed to hang in air[00:01:23]

And all around a dazzling light which made my eyes to stare[00:01:28]

Give over cruel wretch he cried do not thy beasts abuse[00:01:33]

Think if the ground was not so hard they would their work refuse[00:01:39]

Besides I heard thee curse and swear as if dumb beasts could know[00:01:44]

Just what your oaths and cursing meant it's better far than gold[00:01:50]

That you should know that there is one who knows thy sins full well[00:01:55]

And what shall be thy after doom another shall thee tell[00:02:00]

No more he said but light as air he vanished from my sight[00:02:10]

And with him went the sun's bright beams twas all as dark as night[00:02:15]

The thunder roared from underground the earth it seemed to gape[00:02:20]

Blue flames broke forth and in those flames appeared an awful shape[00:02:25]

I soon shall call thee mine he cried with a voice so clear and deep[00:02:35]

And quivering like an Aspen leaf I woke out of my sleep[00:02:41]

So ponder well you ploughboys all this dream that I have told[00:02:46]

And if the work goes hard with you its worth your wage in gold[00:02:51]
