A PLAINMAN'S
  .  .  .  CREED

I WASTE NO THOUGHT ON  .  .  .  
  .  .  .  MY NEIGHBOR'S BIRTH
OR THE WAY HE MAKES HIS PRAYER
I GRANT HIM A WHITE MAN'S  .  .  
.  .  .  .  .  .  .  ROOM ON EARTH
IF HIS GAME IS ONLY SQUARE.
WHILE HE PLAYS IT STRAIGHT  .  
.  .  .  .  .  .  I'LL CALL HIM MATE,
IF HE CHEATS I'LL DROP HIM FLAT:
OLD CLASS AND RANK  .  .  .  .  .  
.  .  .  .  .  ARE A WORN OUT LIE,
FOR ALL CLEAN MEN  .  .  .  .  .  .  
.  .  .  .  ARE AS GOOD AS I ~
AND A KING IS ONLY THAT.

Comments:
Godden does not record this silk as a calendar, although he does record it as a picture.

The image above is of only the front central flap which contains the woven silk. This would be attached onto a backing card, and would be hinged so as to lift up to reveal the 1929 calendar.
