“It started when i heard your song of love
Pouring down like honey from above
I started to spin, i started to move
Just like a needle that is sticking through the same old groove”

“With fingers weary and worn,
With eyelids heavy and red,
A woman sat, in unwomanly rags,
Plying her needle and thread—
Stitch! stitch! stitch!
In poverty, hunger, and dirt,
And still with a voice of dolorous pitch
She sang the “Song of the Shirt.””

Thomas Hood (1799–1845) British writer

St. 1.

Which, like the needle true,
Turns at the touch of joy or woe,
But turning, trembles too.”
