| | | GOOD-DAY, said the damsel, | |
| Good-morrow to you, | |
| For if you mean hunting | |
| I would hunt with you too; | |
| |
| I am weary of making | 5 |
| And baking the bread; | |
| If you stay in my parlour | |
| I will hunt in your stead. | |
| |
| You shall sup in my parlour | |
| My white wine and broth, | 10 |
| I am weary of weaving | |
| The sendal and cloth. | |
| |
| Good-day, said the damsel, | |
| Good-even to you: | |
| What is good for the huntsman | 15 |
| Is good for me too. | | | | |
