Scene: "Harvest-Time"
(Suddenly villagers arrive. They are processing to the church with the fruits of the harvest. There is cider-drinking and dancing. Hartright, Laura and Marian get immediately caught up in the festivities)
[ALL]
Ripe golden fields and the bounty they bring
Reason enough for to dance and to sing
Dance for who knows if we’ll live till it’s spring
Sing, for it’s Lammastide!
(A young girl goes to Laura and gives her a corn dolly)
Winds of the winter
As sharp as a thorn
Soon will assault us
As sure as we’re born
[GIRLS]
What will protect us?
A doll made of corn
[ALL]
Sing, for it's Lammastide!
[MEN]
Please spend the season
Pressed in my arms
Rest in my arms
