“Turn, Turn, Turn, My Wheel”
Number each line!
Draw a line between 3-4, 7-8, 14-15,
Take 5 min. to annotate your particular section of the poem.

7. Turn, turn, my wheel! Turn round and round
Without a pause, without a sound:
So spins the flying world away!

8. This clay, well mixed with marl and sand,
Follows the motion of my hand;
For some must follow, and some command,
Though all are made of clay!

9. Thus sang the Potter at his task
Beneath the blossoming hawthorn-tree,
While o’er his features, like a mask,
The quilted sunshine and leaf-shade
Moved, as the boughs above him swayed,
And clothed him, till he seemed to be
A figure woven in tapestry,

10. So sumptuously was he arrayed
In the magnificent attire
Of sable tissue flaked with fire.
Like a magician he appeared,
A conjurer without book or beard;
And while he plied his magic art—
For it was magical to me—  

11. I stood in silence and apart,
And wondered more and more to see
That shapeless, lifeless mass of clay
Rise up to meet the master’s hand,
And now contract and now expand,
And even his slightest touch obey.
