The White Hart
Three huntsmen forth to the greenwood went;
To hunt the white hart was their intent.
They laid them under a green fir-tree,
And a singular vision befell those three.
The F IRST H UNTSMAN
I dreamt I arose and beat on the bush,
When forth came rushing the stag — hush, hush!
The S ECOND
As with baying of hound he came rushing along,
I fired my gun at his hide — bing, bang!
The T HIRD
And when the stag on the ground I saw,
I merrily wound my horn — trara!
Conversing thus did the huntsmen lie,
When lo! the white hart came bounding by;
And before the huntsmen had noted him well,
He was up and away over mountain and dell! —
Hush, hush! — bing, bang! — trara!
