81. The Maiden Makeles
I syng a of a myden þat is makeles
I syng of a myden þat is makeles,
kyng of alle kynges to here sone che ches.
kyng of alle kynges to here sone che ches.
he cam also stylle þer his moder was
as dew in aprylle, þat fallyt on þe gras.
as dew in aprylle, þat fallyt on þe gras.
he cam also stylle to his moderes bowr
as dew in aprille, þat fallyt on þe flour.
as dew in aprille, þat fallyt on þe flour.
he cam also stylle þer his moder lay
as dew in aprille, þat fallyt on þe spray.
as dew in aprille, þat fallyt on þe spray.
moder & mayden was neuer non but che—
wel may swych a lady godes moder be.
wel may swych a lady godes moder be.
