The Death of Queen Jane - Karine Polwart

Queen Jane lay in labour full six days or more

While the women grew weary and the midwives gave o'er

They sent for King Henry to come with great speed

To be with Queen Jane in her hour of need

King Henry came to her and sat by her bedside

Saying what ails thee my Jeannie

What ails thee my bride

O Henry o Henry do this one thing for me

Rip open my right side and find my baby

O Jeannie o Jeannie that never will do

It would lease thy sweet life and thy young baby too

She wept and she wailed and she fell into a swoon

And her right side was open and her baby was found

Well that baby was christened the very next day

While his poor dead mother a mouldering lay

Six men went before her and four more travelled on

While loyal King Henry stood mourning alone

He wept and he wailed until he was sore

Saying the flower of all England shall flourish no more

He sat by the river with his head in his hands

Saying my merry England is a sorrowful land
