If any will go to it now | A |

By my love go there now | A |
To fetch me my coif away | C |

If you will go for me now | A |
I will kiss your mouth at last | I |
She sayeth inwardly | J |
The graves stand grey in a row | C |
Oliver hold me fast | I |
Therefore said fair Yoland of the flowers | D |
This is the tune of Seven Towers | D |
