O sis­ters too

how may we do

For to pre­serve this day

This poor Young­ling for whom we sing

Herod the king

in his rag­ing

Charged he hath this day

His men of might

in his own sight

All young child­ren to slay.

That woe is me

poor Child for Thee!

And ev­er morn and day

For Thy part­ing nei­ther say nor sing
