Henry was a worthy king,

HNR 643

a
Henry was a worthy king,
Mary was his queen,
He gave to her a lily
Upon a stalk of green.

b
Then all for his kindness,
And all for his care,
She gave him a new-laid egg
In the garden there.

c
Love, can you sing?
I cannot sing.
A story tell?
Not one I know.
Then let us play at queen and king
As down the garden walks we go.
