STRONG POISON Copyright 1930 by Dorothy L. Sayers Fleming
"Where gat ye your dinner, Lord Rendal, my son? Where gat ye your dinner, my handsome young man?" "—O I dined with my sweetheart, Mother, make my bed soon, For I'm sick to the heart and I fain wad lie down." "Oh that was strong poison, Lord Rendal, my son, O that was strong poison, my handsome young man," "—O yes, I am poisoned, Mother; make my bed soon, For I'm sick to the heart, and I fain wad lie down." Old Ballad
