When this ring grows pale and wan
It's then that you'll know me love is gone
...
What news, what news old man doth befall
It's none save the wedding in the king's own hall

He's sought there a drink for the bridegroom's sake
...
Oh got ye this by the sea or the land?
Or took ye this from a dead man's hand?
