How should I your true love know
From another one? -
By his cockle hat and staff
And his sandal shoon.

He is dead and gone, lady
He is dead and gone.
At his head a grass-green turf
At his heels a stone.

White his shroud as in mountain snow
Larded with sweet flowers,
Which bewept to the grave did go
With true-love showers.

He is dead and gone, lady
He is dead and gone.
At his head a grass-green turf
At his heels a stone.
