When I was a little boy, Mother used to sing snatches of an old song that I always liked. She only sang it when she was spinning, and never more than three verses. But she sang them over and over to the rhythm of the wheel. And always, with the first word of every alternate line, she’d take one step forward and let the newly spun length of yarn wind up on the spindle. As I lay there watching Annie, the words and music of the old song came into my head and kept going over and over:

“Nut brown maiden, Thou hast a ruby lip to kiss,

Nut brown maiden, Thou hast a ruby lip;

A ruby lip is thine, love! The kissing of it’s mine, love!

Nut brown maiden, Thou hast a ruby lip.”
