The parents: sore sicke they were and like to dye
 
"Now, brother", said the dying man, "look to my children deare"
 
With lippes as cold as any stone, they kist the children small
 
The parents being dead and gone, the children home he takes
 
Away then went those pretty babes, rejoycing at that tide
 
And he that was of mildest mood, did slaye the other there
 
These prettye babes, with hand in hand, went wandering up and downe
 
In one another’s armes they dyed
