The chelde water of the, the chelde water of the—          Welle was hire dryng—          Wat was hire dryng? The chelde water of the welle-spring.          Welle was hire bour—          wat was hire bour? The rede rose an te, the rede rose an te—          Welle was hire bour—          wat was hire bour? The rede rose an te lilie flour. Audio Excerpt from the CD John Fleagle: Worlds Bliss For the direct .MP3 file, click here. Text Source: Dronke, Peter. The Medieval Lyric.
