They ran with speed to quench the fire,that never was begun:And glad was hur they did retire,that hur away might run,Over the hill and over dale,till hur was almost spent.At last hur legs began to fail,which wrought hur discontent:And then into a hedge hur crept,thinking to take a nap:And then hur sat hur down and wept,lamenting hur mashap:At last a handsome man came by,with him a pretty lass;These lovers did not him espy,but sat down on the grass,He to the maid a ring did give,which she did well accept;And with a kiss did hur believe,and close unto him crept:This ring it seems did prove so wide,which gallantly did shine.From off hur finger it did slide,and so at last was mine.This ring hur much did think upon,they minded more their play,So when these lovers they were gone,hur found it where it lay.Hur put into hur pokeand hur went amain;
