In die mee sepulture

M. Swithinbank

In die mee sepulture

I will nane haif bot our awne gyng,

Et duos rusticos de rure

Berand a berell on a styng,

Drynkand and playand cop out, evin,

Sicut egomet solebam;

Singand and playand with hie stevin

Potum meum cum fletu miscebam.

I will na preistis for me sing

Dies illa, Dies ire;

Na yit na bellis for me ring,

Sicut semper solet fieri;

Bot a bag pipe to play a spryng,

Et unum ail wosp ante me

In stayd of baneris for to bring;

Quatuor lagenas cervisie,

Within the graif to set sic thing

In modum crucis juxta me,

To fle the fendis, than hardely sing

De terra plasmasti me.
