On yonder hill there stands a creature
Who she is I do not know
I'll go and court her for her beauty
She must answer yes or no

Subject: Re: Provenance of term "yonder"?

*Yonder* peasant, who is he?
Where and what' his dwelling?"
"Sire, he lives *a good league hence*
Underneath the mountain
Right against the forest fence
By Saint Agnes' fountain
