The Knight of the Grail
AnonymousLully, lully; lully, lulley;
The fawcon hath born my mak away.He bare hym vp, he bare hym down;
He bare hym into an orchard brown.In that orchard ther was an hall,
That was hangid with purpill and pall.And in that hall ther was a bede;
Hit was hangid with gold so rede.And yn that bed ther lythe a knyght,
His wowndes bledyng day and nyght.By that bedes side ther kneleth a may,
And she wepeth both nyght and day.And by that beddes side ther stondith a ston,
‘Corpus Christi’ wretyn theron.
