And thy two brethren yeomen of my chamber,

For they are so seemly to see.

"Your son, for he is tender of age,

Of my wine-cellar shall he be,

And when he cometh to man's estate,

Better avaunced shall he be.

"And, William, bring me your wife," saidthe queen,

"Me longeth her sore to see;

She shall be my chief gentlewoman,

To govern my nursery."
