    It was a pretty game, played on the smooth surface of the pond, a man against a loon.

    Shee said, Lullabye, my owne deere child!
    Lullabye, deere child, deere!
    I wold thy father were a king,
    Thy mother layd on a beere!

    And be of good cheere, I thee pray,
    And the bridall and the churching both,
    They shall bee upon one day.’
