When the stone is grown too cold to kneel
In crystal waters I'll be bound
Cold as stone, weary to the sounds upon the wheel
Now be thankful for good things below
Now be thankful to your maker
For the rose, the red rose blooms for all to know
When the fire is grown too fierce to breathe
In burning irons I'll be bound
Fierce as fire, weary to the sounds upon the wheel
Now be thankful for good things below
Now be thankful to your maker
For the rose, the red rose blooms for all to know
"Now Be Thankful" by Fairport Convention (Dave Swarbrick, Richard Thompson, Simon Nicol, Dave Pegg and Dave Mattacks), from their album "Full House"
The illustrations in this video of a journey around the wheel of the year are from "The Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry"

Excellent pairing of music and images here. Quite a compliment to Richard Thompson actually, as that Book of Hours is one of the greatest evocations of the high Middle Ages .
