Song

The stranger lighted from his steed,
  And ere he spake a word,
He seiz’d my lady’s lily hand,
  And kiss’d it all unheard.

The stranger walk’d into the hall,
  And ere he spake a word,
He kiss’d my lady’s cherry lips,
  And kiss’d ’em all unheard.

The stranger walk’d into the bower,⁠—
  But my lady first did go⁠,⁠—
Ay hand in hand into the bower,
  Where my Lord’s roses blow.

My lady’s maid had a silken scarf,
  And a golden ring had she,
And a kiss from the stranger, as off he went
  Again on his palfrey.
