She is all so slight

M. Brahe

She is all so slight

And tender and white

As a May morning.

She walks without hood

At dusk. It is good

To hear her sing.

It is God's will

That I shall love her still

As He loves Mary.

And night and day

I will go forth to pray

That she love me.

She is as gold

Lovely, and far more cold.

Do thou pray with me,

For if I win grace

To kiss twice her face

God has done well to me.
