When the snow lay round about, deep and
crisp and even.
Brightly shone the moon that night, though the frost was cruel,
When a
poor man came in sight, gathering winter fuel.
Hither page and stand by me if thou knowst it
telling
Yonder peasant, who is he, where and what his dwelling?
Sire, he lives a good
league hence, underneath the mountain,
Right against the forest fence, by Saint Agnes'
fountain.
Bring me flesh and bring me wine, bring me pinelogs hither
Thou and I will see
him dine when we bear them thither
Page and monarch forth they went, forth they went
together
Through the rude winds wild lament, and the bitter weather.
Sire the night is
darker now, and the wind blows stronger
Fails my heart I know now how, I can go no
longer.
Mark my footsteps my good page, tread thou in them boldly
Thou shalt find the
winter's rage freeze thy blood less coldly.
In his master's steps he trod where the snow lay
dinted
Heat was in the very sod which the saint had printed
Therefore Christian men be
sure, wealth or rank possessing,
Ye who now will bless the poor, shall yourselves find blessing | | | |
