Summary
WULL ye come in eärly Spring,
Come at Easter, or in Maÿ?
Or when Whitsuntide mid bring may
Longer light to show your waÿ?
Wull ye come, if you be true,
Vor to quicken love anew?
Wull ye call in Spring or Fall?
Come now soon by zun or moon?
Wull ye come?
Come wi’ vaïce to vaïce the while
All their words be sweet to hear;
Come that feäce to feäce mid smile,
While their smiles do seem so dear;
Come within the year to seek
Woone you have sought woonce a week? one, once
Come while flow'rs be on the bow'rs,
And the bird o’ zong's a-heärd.
Wull ye come?
Ees come to ye, an’ come vor ye, is my word, yes
I wull come.
