"...And Accordinge as I Desired Ther Cam a Letter..." Songtext
von Sting & Edin Karamazov

And according as I desired
There came a letter to me out of Germany from the Duke of Brunswick
Whereupon I spake to your honor and to my Lord of Essex
Who willingly gave me both your hands, for which I would be glad
If there were any service in me that your honors could command When I came to the Duke, he used me kindly
And gave me a rich chain of gold
With velvet and satin and gold lace to make me apparel
With promise that if I would serve him
He would give me as much as any prince in the world
