One evening as I rambled
Among the springing thyme
I overheard a young woman
Converse with Reynardine
Her hair was black, her eyes were blue
Her cheeks as red as wine
And he smiled to gaze upon her
Did that sly old Reynardine
'Oh no, kind sir, be civil,
My company forsake,
For in my own opinion
I swear you are some rake.'
'Oh no,' he said, 'no rake am I
Brought up in Venus' train,
For I'm seeking concealment
From all the judges' men.'
'Your beauty so enticed me,
I could not pass it by,
So it’s with my gun I’ll guard you
All on the mountains high.'
'And if by chance you should look for me,
Perhaps you’ll not me find,
For I’ll be in my castle,
Enquire for Reynardine.'
Sun and dark she followed him,
His teeth did brightly shine,
And he led her over the mountain,
Did that sly, old Reynardine.
