Then up spake Anne of Normandy, The cousin of the King,Pelt him with roses, maidens; Awaken him and sing :Why sleeps my Lord of Monmouth So early in the day,When the Queen and all her maidens Are blithe and bright and gay? … Then up spake English Edith, The cousin of the Queen,As sweet as any violet new That glistens in the green.Oh, prithee, hush! said Edith ; For truly it would seemTo be a dreadful evil To break a poets dream. 580 Library, UmvNorth Carotoia
