She is all so slight / And tender and white / As a May morning. / She walks without hood / At dusk. It is good / To hear her sing.
It is God's will / That I shall love her still / As He loves Mary. / And night and day / I will go forth to pray / That she love me.
She is as gold / Lovely, and far more cold. / Do thou pray with me, / For if I win grace / To kiss twice her face / God has done well to me.
