John Clare , the so-called "peasant poet" of Northamptonshire, was active at the time of the fields enclosures around the start of the nineteenth century. He was also a fiddler and colllected folk songs. This is one of his poems, and this one seems to have been intended to be a song. So now it is.

lyrics

There is a day, a dreadful day Still following the past
When sun and moon have passed away and
Mingled with the blast
