And he spoke the bridegroom fair | B |

Yet saw but her within | Q |
And wished her heart in a case of gold | R |
And pinned with a silver pin | Q |

A dole of bread a purse | T |
A heartfelt prayer for the poor of God | U |
Or for the rich a curse | T |

But whether or not a man was asked | V |
To mar the love of two | K |
By harboring woe in the bridal house | W |
The bridegroom wished he knew | K |
