All Turns To Yesterday

I have wist, sin I couthe meen

That children hath by candle light

Her shadewe on the wal iseen

And ronne therafter all the night

Bisy aboute they han ben

To catchen it with all here might

And whom they catchen it best wolde wene

Sannest it shet out of her sight

The shadewe catchen they ne might

For no lines that they couthe lay

This shadewe I may likne aright

To this world and yesterday

Bisy aboute they han ben

To catchen it with all here might

And whom they catchen it best wolde wene

Sannest it shet out of her sight

The shadewe catchen they ne might

For no lines that they couthe lay

This shadewe I may likne aright

To this world and yesterday
