One summer morn, as I was seeking / My ponies in their green retreat, / I heard a lady sing a ditty / To me which sounded strangely sweet.
_I am the ladye_, _I am the ladye_, / _I am the ladye loving the knight_; / _I in the green wood 'neath the green branches_ / _In the night season sleep with the knight_.
