King s daughter sitting in tower so high	A
Fair summer is on many a shield	B
Why weepest thou as the clouds go by	A
Fair sing the swans twixt firth and field	B
Why weepest thou in the window seat	C
Till the tears run through thy fingers sweet	C
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
I weep because I sit alone	E
Betwixt these walls of lime and stone	E
Fair folk are in my father s hall	F
But for me he built this guarded wall	F
And here the gold on the green I sew	G
Nor tidings of my true love know	G
	-
The Raven	H
	-
King s daughter sitting above the sea	I
I shall tell thee a tale shall gladden thee	I
Yestreen I saw a ship go forth	J
When the wind blew merry from the north	J
And by the tiller Steingrim sat	K
And O but my heart was glad thereat	K
For twixt ashen plank and dark blue sea	I
His sword sang sweet of deeds to be	I
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
O barren sea thou bitter bird	K
And a barren tale my ears have heard	K
	-
The Raven	H
	-
Thy father s men were hard thereby	A
In byrny bright and helmet high	A
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
O worser waxeth thy story far	L
For these drew upon me bolt and bar	L
Fly south O fowl to the field of death	M
For nothing sweet thy grey neb saith	M
	-
The Raven	H
	-
O there was Olaf the lily rose	N
As fair as any oak that grows	N
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
O sweet bird what did he then	O
Among the spears of my father s men	O
	-
The Raven	H
	-
Twixt ashen plank and dark blue sea	I
He sang My true love waiteth me	I
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
As well as this dull floor knows my feet	K
I am not weary yet my sweet	K
	-
The Raven	H
	-
He sang As once her hand I had	K
Her lips at last shall make me glad	K
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
As once our fingers met O love	P
So shall our lips be fain thereof	P
	-
The Raven	H
	-
He sang Come wrack and iron and flame	Q
For what shall breach the wall but fame	Q
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
Be swift to rise and set O Sun	H
Lest life twixt hope and death be done	H
	-
The Raven	H
	-
King s daughter sitting in tower so high	A
A gift for my tale ere forth I fly	A
The gold from thy finger fair and fine	R
Thou hadst it from no love of thine	R
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
By my father s ring another there is	S
I had it with my mother s kiss	T
Fly forth O fowl across the sea	I
To win another gift of me	I
Fly south to bring me tidings true	U
Fair summer is on many a shield	K
Of the eve grown red with the battle dew	U
Fair sing the swans twixt firth and field	K
	-
The Raven	H
	-
King s daughter sitting in tower so high	A
Fair summer is on many a shield	K
Tidings to hearken ere thou die	A
Fair sing the swans twixt firth and field	K
In the Frankish land the spear points met	K
And wide about the field was wet	K
And high ere the cold moon quenched the sun	H
Blew Steingrim s horn for battle won	H
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
Fair fall thee fowl Tell tidings true	U
Of deeds that men that day did do	U
	-
The Raven	H
	-
Steingrim before his banner went	K
And helms were broke and byrnies rent	K
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
A doughty man and good at need	K
Tell men of any other s deed	K
	-
The Raven	H
	-
Where Steingrim through the battle bore	V
Still Olaf went a foot before	V
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
O fair with deeds the world doth grow	G
Where is my true love gotten now	W
	-
The Raven	H
	-
Upon the deck beside the mast	K
He lieth now and sleepeth fast	K
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
Heard st thou before his sleep began	X
That he spake word of any man	X
	-
The Raven	H
	-
Methought of thee he sang a song	Y
But nothing now he saith for long	Y
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
And wottest thou where he will wend	K
With the world before him from end to end	K
	-
The Raven	H
	-
Before the battle joined that day	K
Steingrim a word to him did say	K
If we bring the banner back in peace	Z
In the King s house much shall my fame increase	Z
Till there no guarded door shall be	I
But it shall open straight to me	I
Then to the bower we twain shall go	G
Where thy love the golden seam doth sew	G
I shall bring thee in and lay thine hand	K
About the neck of that lily wand	K
And let the King be lief or loth	M
One bed that night shall hold you both	M
Now north belike runs Steingrim s prow	W
And the rain and the wind from the south do blow	G
	-
The King s Daughter	D
	-
Lo fowl of death my mother s ring	A2
But the bridal song I must learn to sing	A2
And fain were I for a space alone	E
For O the wind and the wind doth moan	E
And I must array the bridal bed	K
Fair summer is on many a shield	K
For O the rain and the rain drifts red	K
Fair sing the swans twixt firth and field	K
	-
Before the day from the night was born	B2
Fair summer is on many a shield	K
She heard the blast of Steingrim s horn	B2
Fair sing the swans twixt firth and field	K
Before the day was waxen fair	C2
Were Steingrim s feet upon the stair	C2
O bolt and bar they fall away	K
But heavy are Steingrim s feet to day	K
O heavy the feet of one who bears	D2
The longing of days and the grief of years	E2
Lie down lie down thou lily wand	K
That on thy neck I may lay his hand	K
Whether the King be lief or loth	M
To day one bed shall hold you both	M
O thou art still as he is still	F2
So sore as ye longed to talk your fill	F2
And good it were that I depart	K
Now heart is laid so close to heart	K
For sure ye shall talk so left alone	E
Fair summer is on many a shield	K
Of days to be below the stone	E
Fair sing the swans twixt firth and field	K
