Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Hawthorn white hawthorn red ?
Found this from the "Pagent of Letchworth"
HAWTHORN
CLOSE-LEAVED trees with bowers bedight-
Hawthorn red and hawthorn white;
Crowns, with pearls and rubies spread—
Hawthorn white and hawthorn red.
To our Common comes the Spring
Laying it with foamy billows;
Nightingales and thrushes sing
Resting on its snowy pillows.
Will look for the lute verse.....
