Lord Lovell's Lament

Pray sleep thou tender child
I hold you to my breast
Defended from the wild
And slumbered in thy nest

Oh let sleep be so mild
Without dreams of strife
Sleep hold thee undefiled
Sweet innocent young life

Remember those now reviled
Whose faith had wavered not
Their honour has been defiled
They lie in earthen plot

Oh let sleep be so mild
Without dreams of strife
Sleep hold thee undefiled
Sweet innocent young life
