Poem by Christina Georgina Rossetti

* * *

A diamond or a coal?
	A diamond, if you please;
Who cares about a clumsy coal
	Beneath the summer trees?

A diamond or a coal?
	A coal, sir, if you please:
One comes to care about the coal
	What time the waters freeze.

1. Rosy Maiden Winifred
2. Come Unto Me
3. Dead Hope
4. Brownie, Brownie, Let Down Your Milk
5. Hear What The Mournful Linnets Say
