Rondel

Good year! good week! Good day!
Health, joy, and honour with you stay,
From Better's door to Best pass through,
And joy in love may God give you.
And for a New Year's gift, I pray
A lady than Helaine more gay,
Whose purse may always gold display;
Live long without age touching you.
Good year! good week! good day!

And when you leave this earthly way
May heavenly joy your heart repay
When caught up to the heavenly blue,
Where one may find the only true
Bliss, without pain or sorrow grey.
Good year! good week! good day!
