[00:08.10]When I was sick and lay a-bed,
[00:11.95]I had two pillows at my head,
[00:14.76]And all my toys beside me lay,
[00:17.00]To keep me happy all the day.
[00:22.05]And sometimes for an hour or so
[00:25.68]I watched my leaden soldiers go,
[00:28.53]With different uniforms and drills,
[00:31.00]Among the bed-clothes, through the hills;
[00:35.07]And sometimes sent my ships in fleets
[00:37.09]All up and down among the sheets;
[00:41.59]Or brought my trees and houses out,
[00:44.59]And planted cities all about.
[00:48.62]I was the giant great and still
[00:52.65]That sits upon the pillow-hill,
[00:56.19]And sees before him, dale and plain,
[01:00.00]The pleasant land of counterpane.
