THERE WAS A MAID CAME OUT OF KENT
There was a maid came out of Kent,
Dainty love, dainty love;
There was a maid came out of Kent,
Dangerous be:
There was a maid came out of Kent,
Fair, proper, small and gent,
As ever upon the ground went,
For so it should be.
The Fire of Frendraught
The reek it rose, and the flame it flew,
And oh the fire augmented high,
Until it came to Lord John's chamber-window
And to the bed where Lord John lay.
"O help me, help me, Lady Frennet!
I never ettled harm to thee;
And if my father slew thy lord,
Forget the deed and rescue me."
reek, smoke. ettled, designed.
He looked east, he looked west,
To see if any help was nigh;
At length his little page he saw,
Who to his lord aloud did cry.
"Loup down, loup down, my master dear!
What though the window's dreigh and high?
I'll catch you in my arms twa,
And never a foot from you I'll flee."
"How can I loup, you little page,
How can I leave this window high?
Do you not see the blazing low,
And my twa legs burnt to my knee?"
dreigh, high. low, flame.
