Jenny Wren fell sick

HNR 186

a
Jenny Wren fell sick
Upon a merry time,
In came Robin Redbreast
And brought her sops and wine.

b
Eat well of the sop, Jennny,
Drink well of the wine.
Thank you, Robin, kindly,
You shall be mine.

c
Jenny Wren got well.
And stood upon her feet;
And told Robin plainly,
She loved him not a bit.

d
Robin he got angry,
And hopped upon a twig,
Saying, Out upon you, fie upon you,
Bold faced jig!
