Oh , to be listening to
Ballad of Benedick
And sitting to grinding-stone
It is a summer to
Sweating to lyric
Why lady is veiling her tone .

Rae , ten to one is she
Revering her forefa'
Astride she bending her daint
Which is why humming she
Making a fissure for
Gentle or Love distant.

Sorrow is Labour,
Her story censor.
