And in that hall there was a bed,
It was hangèd with gold sa red.

V

And in that bed there li’th a knight,
His woundès bleeding day and night.

VI

At that bed’s foot there li’th a hound,
Licking the blood as it runs down.

VII

By that bed-side kneeleth a may[611],
And she weepeth both night and day.

VIII

And at that bed’s head standeth a stone,
Corpus Christi written thereon.
