Then, like a prudent maid and wise,

She sealed it with a kiss.


MY LADY OF THE GOLDEN HEART.

MY lady of the golden heart, she comes each day

Down by the lodge-gate that I keep; she comes demurely,

And her two hounds sedate do follow and obey

Her slightest wish, and they do love my lady surely.

She comes each day, my lady of the golden heart,
