Thou killest swine on Thursday morn,

And eatest flesh on fasting day.

"'Tis now seven years since first I trod

The valley and the wandering wood;

My feet were bare, my flesh was torn,

And all my pathway stained in blood.

"Ah, mournfully I seek in vain

The Emperor's daughter, who had gone

A prisoner made by caitiff Moors,

Upon the morning of St. John.
