Each one in her wame shall hide

Her hairy mouse, her wary mouse,

Fed on madwort and agramie,—

Wear amber beads between her breasts,

And blind-worm's skin about her knee.

The Lombard shall be Elspie's man,

Elspie's gowden husband-man;

Nort shall take the lawyer's hand;

The priest shall swear another vow;

We'll dance again the saraband!
