Over the Bridge to the Kings High


Over the bridge to the Kings highway
They throng and they jostle, young and old.
With hustle and with hurry; for I Is market day,
And the mist from the river riseth cold
over the bridge they speed, the noisy folk,
With chaises, with barrows, and with carts;
The prentice in his cap, and the dame in her
And the baker with his fresh made tarts.
The friar with his book, and the Jester with his
The vender with red apples for his stands,
The maid who buys, and the master who sells,
And the little lass with blossoms in her hands.
Oh, the violet- smile like her sweet blue eyes.
A. dawn on the river stealeth down,
But nobody heeds them and nobody buys.
For I l. marketday in yonder busy town.
Over the bridge they have sped them one and all,
She watches ana she mods, and understands.
FOR they are so great and she so small
This little lass with blossoms in her hands
over the bridge to the Kings highway
They are riding In the noontide sun,
The lords and the ladies, the courters CAV
A-gleaming and CHANGING every one.
oh, they flash and they dart past her sweet blue
eyes,
The merry, the ccurtly and the sage,
She sees the lance that lights, and the feather,
And the tagging Of the little foot page
VIII they stop: Nay. nay they are grand. they
are great.
She mods and she smiles. and understands
They have no time, while the court doth yondcr
wait,
For little lass with blossoms In her hands
She knows how the page with hi. tagging liue
feet
Would falu for a wee ret stay;
They have iourneyed 20 far, they have ridden
feet,
The noble, the kingly, and the gay
Then swiftly the leaves OF her yiolets blue
Are hrJ-hing his wan, pale face
Oh, my hlithe little lass the court hath need of
YOU,
~ uie gift, and the giver. and the grace
just pause Just smile from her bonny sweet
eyes
Md the river, how It laughcth to the sands.
For the tired little page Ike a winged bird he
flies
\ bearing dew blossoms in his hand
over the bridge In the noontidc bright
They have sped like arrow from It's bow
lhe iiiie lass shading her eyes for the sight
The little pages plume sweeping low.
And. Oh, the river sings, no, Of couricr or sage
NaS they haste y hle the great court com.
mand-.
