Queen of the May 
 
 
 

                        Who will be Queen of the May 
                       in Columbine, in Columbine, 
                  Who be her spouse and with her entwine 
                       in Columbine, in Columbine, 
                      in Columbine on May Morning ? 
              Who be their teacher to call them the steps 
                             of their weaving, 
                       in Columbine, in the dawning ? 

                Hecate herself shall stand in her place, 
                     with her sickle and scissors 
                              and stone; 

               She wear the crown and death  be her spouse 
                       she will conjure the gate, 
                       for the roll call be long, 
                      in Columbine, on May morning.
