[edit] The Poem

I syng of a mayden
That is makeles;
Kyng of alle Kynges
To her Son she ches.
He cam al so stylle
There his moder was
As dew in Aprylle
That fallyt on the gras;
He cam al so stylle
To his moderes bowr
As dew in Aprylle
That fallyt on the flour;
He cam al so stylle
There his moder lay
As dew in Aprylle
That fallyt on the spray;
Moder and mayden
Was never non but she;
Wel may swych a lady
Godes moder be.
