Faldage,
I didn't know your line, but was intrigued by the mulberry and mustard, so went googling for it--and found the entire song, although I have no idea from where this could have come, but it is charming.
I must paste the whole song because it reminds me of all the hopelessly practicing horrible players of string instruments I've ever heard:
A Rune upon a Lunar Tune Aroon. (For El'n)
The Moon is a Madness,
A Madness of mine.
I made her of mustard
And mulberry wine. *(twang)*
I garbed her in silver
And strawberry cheese
And halved her in quarters.
(Her quarters do please.) *(twang, strum)*
I crowned her and gowned her
In Love all ashine,
So boot her and shoot her,
This Madness of mine. *(T-poing)* ouch.
