‘Cuckoo Song,’ of the thirteenth century, intended to be sung in harmony by four voices:
Sumer is icumen in;
Lhude sing, cuccu!
Groweth sed and bloweth med
And springth the wde nu.
Sing, cuccu!
Awe bleteth after lomb,
Lhouth after calve cu.
Bulluc sterteth, bucke verteth;
Murie sing, cuccu!
Cuccu, cuccu,
| Wel singes thu, cuccu;
Ne swik thu never nu. |
