This is a lovely book, an old paperback that can still be bought cheaply.
‘Go now, bird, urbane and civil,
Tomtit with the piping bill,
From the South to my sweetheart -
That dear she that shared my heart.
To Merioneth run straightway,
Bright sound in the thorns of May,
Swift above the bridges of copse,
Rider on the strong birchtops.
(Late 14th Century)
