FAIR ROSAMUND CLIFFORD  I have a sister, young Clifford, he said  A sister no man knows  She hath a color in her cheek  Like drops of blood in snow  Like drops of blood in snow  She hath a waist, a waist, a waist  Like my silver cane  And I would not for ten thousand worlds  Have King Henry know her name  Have King Henry know her name  King Henry was in his bower  Hidden close and still  And every word young Clifford spoke  He wrote down in a bill  He wrote down in a bill  Now the first fair line she looked on  She did begin to smile  And the next fair line she looked on  Down the tears did fall (2x)  Cursed be my brother Clifford  Oh cursed may he be  Why don't he dote on his hawks and hounds  But he must dote on me (2x)  see also QECONFES  Rosamund Clifford became Henry II mistress  recorded by Ewan MacColl and Peggy Seeger  filename[ ROSACLIF  SF  ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY===
