You must wake and call me early, call me early, mother dear;
To-morrow 'll be the happiest time of all the glad New Year,--
Of all the glad New Year, mother, the maddest, merriest day;
For I 'm to be Queen o' the May, mother, I 'm to be queen o' the May.
-- Alfred Tennyson (1809-1892)
-- The May Queen
