Fair Ellayne she walk'd by Welland river	A
Across the lily lee	B
O gentle Sir Robert ye are not kind	C
To stay so long at sea	B
	-
Over the marshland none can see	B
Your scarlet pennon fair	D
O leave the Easterlings alone	E
Because of my golden hair	D
	-
The day when over Stamford bridge	F
That dear pennon I see	B
Go up toward the goodly street	G
'Twill be a fair day for me	B
	-
O let the bonny pennon bide	H
At Stamford the good town	I
And let the Easterlings go free	B
And their ships go up and down	I
	-
For every day that passes by	J
I wax both pale and green	K
From gold to gold of my girdle	L
There is an inch between	K
	-
I sew'd it up with scarlet silk	M
Last night upon my knee	B
And my heart grew sad and sore to think	N
Thy face I'd never see	B
	-
I sew'd it up with scarlet silk	M
As I lay upon my bed	O
Sorrow the man I'll never see	B
That had my maidenhead	O
	-
But as Ellayne sat on her window seat	O
And comb'd her yellow hair	D
She saw come over Stamford bridge	F
The scarlet pennon fair	D
	-
As Ellayne lay and sicken'd sore	P
The gold shoes on her feet	O
She saw Sir Robert and his men	Q
Ride up the Stamford street	O
	-
He had a coat of fine red gold	O
And a bascinet of steel	R
Take note his goodly Collayne sword	O
Smote the spur upon his heel	R
	-
And by his side on a grey jennet	O
There rode a fair lady	O
For every ruby Ellayne wore	P
I count she carried three	O
	-
Say was not Ellayne's gold hair fine	S
That fell to her middle free	O
But that lady's hair down in the street	O
Fell lower than her knee	O
	-
Fair Ellayne's face from sorrow and grief	T
Was waxen pale and green	K
That lady's face was goodly red	O
She had but little tene	K
	-
But as he pass'd by her window	O
He grew a little wroth	U
O why does yon pale face look at me	O
From out the golden cloth	U
	-
It is some burd the fair dame said	O
That aye rode him beside	O
Has come to see your bonny face	V
This merry summer tide	O
	-
But Ellayne let a lily flower	A
Light on his cap of steel	R
O I have gotten two hounds fair knight	O
The one has served me well	W
	-
But the other just an hour agone	K
Has come from over sea	O
And all his fell is sleek and fine	K
But little he knows of me	O
	-
Now which shall I let go fair knight	O
And which shall bide with me	O
O lady have no doubt to keep	X
The one that best loveth thee	O
	-
O Robert see how sick I am	Y
Ye do not so by me	O
Lie still fair love have ye gotten harm	Z
While I was on the sea	O
	-
Of one gift Robert that ye gave	A2
I sicken to the death	U
I pray you nurse tend me my knight	O
Whiles that I have my breath	U
	-
Six fathoms from the Stamford bridge	F
He left that dame to stand	O
And whiles she wept and whiles she cursed	O
That she ever had taken land	O
	-
He has kiss'd sweet Ellayne on the mouth	U
And fair she fell asleep	X
And long and long days after that	O
Sir Robert's house she did keep	X
