Arrayed in flames like to the prince of fiends,
Do with his smirched complexion all fell feats
Enlinked to waste and desolation?”

Since that my lovely knight is slain.
Wi ae lock of his yellow hair
I’ll chain my heart for evermair.”

a girl without a stitch on
to turn softly in her sunlight
and not be afraid of her bed.”
