"I Will Give my Love an Apple" is a traditional English folk song.
It was arranged by Benjamin Britten[1] and by Herbert Howells.
The song goes thus: I will give my love an apple without e'er a core,I will give my love a house without e'er a door.I will give my love a palace, wherein she may beAnd she may unlock it without e'er a key.My head is the apple without e'er a core.My mind is the house without e'er a door.My heart is the palace, wherein she may beAnd she may unlock it without e'er a key.A version of the song was collected at Sherborne, Dorset, by H. E. D. Hammond in 1906; another version was printed in Journal of the Folk-Song Society, vol.
