Merry Margaret

Lyrics

Merry Margaret As midsummer flower Gentle as falcon Or hawk of the tower: With solace and gladness Much mirth and no madness All good and no badness; So joyously So maidenly So womanly Her demeaning In every thing Far, far passing That I can indite Or suffice to write Of Merry Margaret As midsummer flower Gentle as falcon Or hawk of the tower As patient and still And as full of good will As fair Isaphill Coliander Sweet pomander Good Cassander; Steadfast of thought Well made, well wrought Far may be sought Ere that ye can find So courteous, so kind As merry Margaret This midsummer flower Gentle as falcon Or hawk of the tower
