CAROL<br />

A lay ybounden,<br />

Bounden in a bond;<br />

Four thous<strong>and</strong> winter<br />

Thought he not too long.<br />

And all was for an apple,<br />

An apple that he took,<br />

As clerkes finden<br />

Written in their book.<br />

Ne had the apple taken been,<br />

The apple taken been,<br />

Ne had never our lady<br />

Abeen heavenè queen.<br />

Blessèd be the time<br />

That apple taken was,<br />

Therefore we moun singen,<br />

Deo gracias!<br />

Words, ɴʀʏ<br />

Music, ʙʀɪ ʀ<br />
