TEXT I saw a peacock with a fiery tail, I saw a blazing comet drop down hail, I saw a cloud with ivy circled round, I saw a sturdy oak creep on the ground, I saw an ant swallow up a whale, I saw a raging sea that was brimful of ale, I saw a Venice glass fifteen feet deep, I saw a well full of men's tears that weep, I saw red eyes all in a flame of fire, I saw a house as big as the moon and higher, I saw the sun in the midst of night, I saw the man that saw this wondrous sight.

I saw a peacock with a fiery tail,
I saw a blazing comet drop down hail,
I saw a cloud with ivy circled round,
I saw a sturdy oak creep on the ground,
I saw an ant swallow up a whale,
I saw a raging sea that was brimful of ale,
I saw a Venice glass fifteen feet deep,
I saw a well full of men's tears that weep,
I saw red eyes all in a flame of fire,
I saw a house as big as the moon and higher, I saw the sun in the midst of night,
I saw the man that saw this wondrous sight.
