Légende

Fair Rosamond, 1842. 'When as King Henry rulde this land, The second of that name, Besides the queene, he dearly lovde A faire and comely dame. Most peerlesse was her beauty founde, Her favour, and her face; A sweeter creature in this worlde Did never prince embrace. Her crisped lockes like threads of golde Appeard to each man's sight; Her sparkling eyes, like Orient pearles, Did cast a heavenly light'. From "The Book of British Ballads", edited by S. C. Hall, vol. I, p. 23, [London: Jeremiah How, 1842-44]
