There lies a Knight slain under his shield
His hounds they lie downe at his feete
So well can they their master keepe.
His hawkes they flie so eagerly
There is no fowle dare him come nigh
Down there comes a fallow doe
As great with yong as she might goe.
She lifted up his bloudy head
And kist the wounds that were so red
She got him up upon her backe
And carried him to earthen lake.
She buried him before the prime
She was dead herself ere evensong time
God send to ev’ry gentle man
Such hawkes, such hounds and such a Leman.
