• The Three Ravens (Unknown Song I)

THERE were three ravens sat on a tree,
Down-a-down,hey! Derry-down,
They were as black as they might be.
Down
The one of them said to his make,
'Where shall we our breakfast take?'
Down. derry down down down down

'Down in yonder greene field,
Down-a-down,hey! Derry-down,
There lies a knight slain under his shield;
Down
'His hounds they lie down at his feet,
So well they can their master keep;
Down. derry down down down down

'His hawks they flie so eagerly,
Down-a-down,hey! Derry-down,
There 's no fowl dare come him nigh.'
Dawn
Down there comes a fallow doe
As great with young as she might goe.
Down. derry down down down down

She lift up his bloudy head
Down-a-down,hey! Derry-down,
And kist his wounds that were so red.
Down,
She gat him up upon her back
And carried him to earthen lake.
Down. derry down down down down

She buried him before the prime,
Down-a-down,hey! Derry-down,
She was dead herself ere evensong time.
Down.
God send every gentleman
Such hounds, such hawks, and such a leman
Down. derry down down down down
