tam lin

i forbid you maidens all that wear gold in your hair

to travel to carterhaugh for young tam lin is there

none that go by carterhaugh but they leave him a pledge

either their mantles of green or else their maidenhead

janet tied her kirtle green a bit above her knee

and she's gone to carterhaugh as fast as go can she

she'd not pulled a double rose

a rose but only two

when up then came young tam lin

says lady
