SONG
O Love whither do you go
Spear in hand and belted so?
Spear in hand and belted so?
I go to win a crown, my love,
To put your golden hair above,
I go to fight and travail sore
That you may cling to me the more.
To put your golden hair above,
I go to fight and travail sore
That you may cling to me the more.
I will wear a crown of green
With red roses set between,
If it be not rich enow
Then sweet kisses shall you sow
In between the flowers red
All about my golden head;
I will cling so hardily
You shall never go from me.
With red roses set between,
If it be not rich enow
Then sweet kisses shall you sow
In between the flowers red
All about my golden head;
I will cling so hardily
You shall never go from me.
O my Love, soon goes the day,
O my Love, soon comes the night;
All my glory goes away,
Comes my hour of delight.
O my Love, soon comes the night;
All my glory goes away,
Comes my hour of delight.
