As you came from the holy land Of Walsinghame,

Met you not with my true love

By the way as you came?

How shall I know your true love,

That have met many one

As I went to the holy land,

That have come, that have gone?

 

by Walter Ralegh c. 1552–1618, English explorer and courtier, in ‘Walsinghame’
