(from the French of Wenceslas,
Duke of Brabant and Luxembourg, who died in 1384.)Long ago to thee I
Body, soul, and all I have--- Nothing in the world I keep:
All that in return I
Is that thou accept the
Long ago to thee I gave---Body, soul, and all I have.
Had I more to share or save,
I would give as give the brave, Stooping not to part the heap;
Long ago to thee I
Body, soul, and all I have--- Nothing in the world I keep.
