[D]Brightly shone the moon [Em]that night

[G]

[Verse 3]
[G]Hither, page and stand by me
[C]If thou [D]knows it [C]telling[G]
Yonder peasant, who is he?
[C]Where [D]and what his d[G]welling?

[Verse 4]

[G]

[G]In his [C]master's [G]steps he trod
[C]Where [D]the snow lay [G]dinted
Heat was in the very sod
[C]Which [D]the Saint had [G]printed
