The King of China's Daughter lyrics

(*Edith Sitwell)
[** Disc 1:]

The king of China's daughter*
So beautiful to see
With her face like yellow water
Left her nutmeg tree

Her little rope for skipping

Made of painted notes of singing-birds
Among the fields of tea

I skipped across the nutmeg grove
I skipped across the sea
But neither sun or moon, my dear
Has yet caught me

(*Edith Sitwell)
[** Disc 1:]
