Lyrics: At the cry of the first bird
They began to crucify Thee,
They began to crucify Thee,
At the cry of the first bird.
O cheek like a swan!
It was not right ever to cease lamenting.
It was like the parting of day from night.
Ah! though sore the suffering
Put upon the body of Mary's Son,
Sorer to Him was the grief
That was upon her for His sake.
