Through the sweet springtide,
When the apple-blossoms bless
The lowly bent hill side.”

FYTTE THE THIRD.

[Verse extracted from the prose narrative.]

[“Christ keep the Hollow Land]

“Christ keep the Hollow Land
All the summer-tide;
Still we cannot understand
Where the waters glide:
“Only dimly seeing them
Coldly slipping through
Many green-lipped cavern mouths
Where the hills are blue.
