On ye troubadurs below, srts
Az they stood, a.tuning their voyccs,
At n,ydnigltte in row. 's1a 4s
In row beneath her lattyce, .a
With ye tenor at ye head lla 90
4 palyd youth with yellow hair
WHO had ought to have been in bed. aw
And now yc yiols sounded, gal ei
Aud ye flutes on yc mydnight.e air,
And Sdysmal noises went wail'ng out,
From hy.n ofye yellow hair. stiA %
lie called her hys sun, hys light,hys star,
And lykensd her to ye moon; IN
Aud ye viols and flute nnd light guitar,
Took up and echoed yc tune. .2g
Aud ye lonser he sung ye louder
llys voycc was pytclled and higher;
Ilys hands he clsspcd where hys heart
should be.
And in verse swore he was on tyre. 2
Then ye mayd-n s,nyled., pcusivc smyle,
Aud vent to haf lytilc stand,
And appeared il white at ye lattyce,
With an ever III her hand. sE 4,
Then SC troubadur, grew frantic,
And fcrcer ye music grew
But onto their heads yc contents
She very deity threw.
ie Gre was gucuchcd, aud ye tumult
Was over. and all was styil;
And naurht was seen Of sc myAstrcls
Buttheir coat tayles over ye hill!
