An incident from the 'Historia mei Temporis'	A
of the Abbe Michel de Bourdeille	B
	-
Said lady once to lover	C
'None can rely upon	D
A love that lacks its proper food	E
And if your love were gone	F
How could you sing those songs of love	G
I should be blamed young man	H
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
Have no lit candles in your room '	-
That lovely lady said	J
'That I at midnight by the clock	K
May creep into your bed	J
For if I saw myself creep in	L
I think I should drop dead '	-
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
'I love a man in secret	M
Dear chambermaid ' said she	N
'I know that I must drop down dead	J
If he stop loving me	N
Yet what could I but drop down dead	J
If I lost my chastity	N
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
'So you must lie beside him	O
And let him think me there	P
And maybe we are all the same	Q
Where no candles are	R
And maybe we are all the same	Q
That stip the body bare '	-
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
But no dogs barked and midnights chimed	S
And through the chime she'd say	A
'That was a lucky thought of mine	T
My lover looked so gay'	K
But heaved a sigh if the chambermaid	S
Looked half asleep all day	S
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
'No not another song ' siid he	N
'Because my lady came	Q
A year ago for the first time	U
At midnight to my room	V
And I must lie between the sheets	A
When the clock begins to chime '	-
O my dear O my d ear	W
	-
'A laughing crying sacred song	K
A leching song ' they said	S
Did ever men hear such a song	K
No but that day they did	S
Did ever man ride such a race	A
No not until he rode	S
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
But when his horse had put its hoof	X
Into a rabbit hole	B
He dropped upon his head and died	S
His lady saw it all	B
And dropped and died thereon for she	N
Loved him with her soul	B
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
The chambermaid lived long and took	K
Their graves into her charge	Y
And there two bushes planted	S
That when they had grown large	Y
Seemed sprung from but a single root	S
So did their roses merge	Z
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
When she was old and dying	K
The priest came where she was	A
She made a full confession	A2
Long looked he in her face	A
And O he was a good man	H
And understood her case	A
O my dear O my dear	I
	-
He bade them take and bury her	C
Beside her lady's man	H
And set a rose tree on her grave	B2
And now none living can	H
When they have plucked a rose there	P
Know where its roots began	H
O my dear O my dear	I
