As it began to dawn towards Sunday morning
And while it was yet dark, came Mary Madalene
Early unto the sepulcher
Where they had lain Jesus
And when she was come unto the garden
She seeith the stone taken away from the seplucher
And knew not what it ment
Mary singing*
What have they done?
Removed him!
What have they done?
Then she runeth and cometh to Peter and to John
Mary singing*
Come and see
They have taken our Lord away,
Where he is I know not
But the seplucher's empty
And then they came to the seplucher,
They went in and seeith the linen cloths lie
And the napkin that was about his head
Wrapped together in a place by itself
Then the disciples went away again unto their own home
But Mary stood without at the seplucher weeping
And as she wept she stooped down
And looked into the seplucher
And seeith two angels in white
Sitting where the body of Jesus had lain.
And they say unto her Woman, why weepest thou?"
Mary singing*
Because they have taken my Lord away, where he is I know not
I know not where they have laid him
And when she had thus said she turned herself back
And saw Jesus standing and knew not that it was Jesus
But supposed him to be the Gardener
Jesus sayeth unto her
"Woman, why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou?"
