King Henry was sent for, and sat by her bedside:

‘Why weep you, Queen Jeany? your eyes are so red.’

‘O Henry, O Henry, do this one thing for me,

Let my side straight be opend, and save my babie!’

‘O Jeany, O Jeany, this never will do,

It will leese thy sweet life, and thy young babie too.’

She wept and she wailed, till she fell in a swoon:

Her side it was opened, the babie was found.
