We may think of English poet Willam Blake as the writer of majestic mystical visions, but here he is simply observing the civic use of children of poverty on a religious holiday in this first of a pair of poems with this title. I've turned this poem from his Songs of Innocence  into what it says on the tin: a song. 

The Parlando Project combines various words (mostly literary poetry) with original music in differing styles. We've done of 800 of these combinations, and you can hear any of them and read our accounts of our encounters with the words at our blog and archives, located at frankhudson.org
