"Levy dew" looks as if transcribed letter by letter while the
rest of the time has modern spelling. Do you have an accurate
transcription of the original song?
I'm thinking "levy due"--a fee or tax payable--at the end of the
old year or beginning of the new year. I mention this because
the Tudor MS I am working with (in)consistently has the spelling
"___ew(e)" in various words.
