English Rendering
A country-woman in farm dress and skirt blue Reveals her frost-white bare feet for she wears no shoe.
A silver hairpin passing through her tousled hair, Like shuttle in a loom she wades in wind and rain.
Hers is the dress that ancient palace maids did wear: People cannot forget their former master's reign.
Willow catkins begin to fly beside the brook Which sees her pass across with her pencilled eyebrows.
The woodman comes back, they exchange an amorous look And won't believe on earth there is a happier spouse.
