Robbins Library Digital Projects Announcement: We are currently working on a large-scale migration of the Robbins Library Digital Projects to a new platform. This migration affects The Camelot Project, The Robin Hood Project, The Crusades Project, The Cinderella Bibliography, and Visualizing Chaucer.
While these resources will remain accessible during the course of migration, they will be static, with reduced functionality. They will not be updated during this time. We anticipate the migration project to be complete by Summer 2025.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us directly at robbins@ur.rochester.edu. We appreciate your understanding and patience.

Sir Dagonet's Song
Cracked my brain, Oh Ho! but shout
The catch, nor let the bowl go dry;
Cracks but let the sadness out.
Let crone Care go by
Oh Ho!
A merry wight am I.
Let crone Care go by, go by,
Let in the free sunlight;
If we can see the sky, glad sky,
Who cares to see aright?
Knights each other's crowns may crack
To prove whose maid shines bright;
But who's already cracked, good lack!
Is wiser than Sir Knight;
Oh Ho!
He is a merry wight.
Then, clink, the bumpers round, around,
Fool Knight, Sir Fool, and maid;
We'll all sleep long and sound, full sound,
When 'neath the clover laid
Low, low,
In ivied tower's shade.
Let crone Care go by, go by
Let in the free sunlight
If we can see the sky, the sky,
Who cares to see aright?
The catch, nor let the bowl go dry;
Cracks but let the sadness out.
Let crone Care go by
Oh Ho!
A merry wight am I.
Let crone Care go by, go by,
Let in the free sunlight;
If we can see the sky, glad sky,
Who cares to see aright?
Knights each other's crowns may crack
To prove whose maid shines bright;
But who's already cracked, good lack!
Is wiser than Sir Knight;
Oh Ho!
He is a merry wight.
Then, clink, the bumpers round, around,
Fool Knight, Sir Fool, and maid;
We'll all sleep long and sound, full sound,
When 'neath the clover laid
Low, low,
In ivied tower's shade.
Let crone Care go by, go by
Let in the free sunlight
If we can see the sky, the sky,
Who cares to see aright?
