My soul has nought but fire and ice

My soul has nought but fire and ice
And my body earth and wood:
Pray we all the Most High King
Who is the Lord of our last doom,
That He should give us just one thing
That we may do His will.

by Anonymous/Unidentified Artist , from "A Medieval Anthology", edited by Mary Segar.
