Quid petis, o fili? Mater dulcissima ba ba. O pater, o fili Mihi plausus oscula da da. The mother, full mannerly and meekly as a maid, looking on her little son, so laughing in lap laid so prettily, so pertly, so passingly well apay'd full softly and full soberly unto her sweet son she said: Quid petis, o fili? Mater dulcissima ba ba. Musing on her manners So nigh marr'd was my main Save it pleased me so passingly Tahat past was my pain; Yet softly to her sweet son Methought I heard her sain: Now gracious God and good sweet babe Yet once this game again Quid petis, o fili? Mater dulcissima ba ba. O pater, o fili Mihi plausus oscula da da.
