Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAAAAAAAABBBCCDAA AEEEFFFGGGHHHAAAAAAI IIJJKAAALMM| NIGHT they say is no man's friend | A |
| And at night he met his end | A |
| In the woods of Trebizend | A |
| Hate crouched near him as he strode | A |
| Through the blackness of the road | A |
| Where my Lord seemed some huge toad | A |
| Eyes of murder glared and burned | A |
| At each bend of road he turned | A |
| And where wild the torrent churned | A |
| And with Death we stood and stared | A |
| From the bush as by he fared | A |
| But he never looked or cared | A |
| He went singing and a rose | B |
| Lay upon his heart's repose | B |
| With what thought of her who knows | B |
| He had done no other wrong | C |
| Save to sing a simple song | C |
| 'I have loved you loved you long ' | D |
| And my lady smiled and sighed | A |
| Gave a rose and looked moist eyed | A |
| And forgot she was a bride | A |
| My sweet lady Jehan de Grace | E |
| With the pale Madonna face | E |
| He had brought to his embrace | E |
| And my Lord saw gave commands | F |
| I was of his bandit bands | F |
| Love should perish at our hands | F |
| Young the Knight was He should sing | G |
| Nevermore of love or spring | G |
| Or of any gentle thing | G |
| When he stole at midnight's hour | H |
| To my Lady's forest bower | H |
| We were hidden near the tower | H |
| In the woods of Trebizend | A |
| There he met an evil end | A |
| Night you know is no man's friend | A |
| He has fought in fort and field | A |
| Borne for years a stainless shield | A |
| And in strength to none would yield | A |
| But we seized him unaware | I |
| Bound and hung him stripped him bare | I |
| Left him to the wild boars there | I |
| Never has my Lady known | J |
| But she often sits alone | J |
| Weeping when my Lord is gone | K |
| Night they say is no man's friend | A |
| In the woods of Trebizend | A |
| There he met an evil end | A |
| Now my old Lord sleeps in peace | L |
| While my Lady each one sees | M |
| Waits and keeps her memories | M |
