The boars head in hand bear I Bedecked with bay and rosemary So I pray you my masters be merry Quot estis in convivio [So many as are in the feast] Chorus Caput apri defero [I bring the boars head] Reddens laudes Domino [Giving praises to God] The boars head as I understand Is the rarest dish in all the land Which thus bedecked with a gay garland Let us servire cantico [serve with a song] Chorus Our steward hath provided this In honour of the King of bliss Which on this day to be served is In Reginensis atrio [In the Queens hall] Chorus
