Blue and White

BLUE is Our Lady’s colour,

  White is Our Lord’s.

To-morrow I will wear a knot

  Of blue and white cords,

That you may see it, where you ride

  Among the flashing swords.

O banner, white and sunny blue,

  With prayer I wove thee!

For love the white, for faith the heavenly hue,

And both for him, so tender-true,

  Him that doth love me!
