    The lea or lay was a British unit of length.

    The Oxford English Dictionary describes it as a measure "of varying quantity" and cites quotations from within various areas of the textile industry which define it as "80 yards" (1888 note on a 1399 text), "200 Threds reel'd on a Reel four yards about" (1696), "each lay containing 200 yards" (1704", "eighty threads" (1776), "forty threads" (1825), "300 yards" (1882) and "in worsted 80 yards; in cotton and silk 120 yards" (1885).

    Cardarelli has asserted that it had a fixed value of 360 feet.

    River Lea

    The River Lea (or Lee) in England originates in Marsh Farm, Leagrave, Luton in the Chiltern Hills and flows generally southeast, east, and then south through east London where it meets the River Thames, the last section being known as Bow Creek. It is one of the largest rivers in London and the easternmost major tributary of the Thames. Its valley creates a long chain of marshy ground along its lower length, much of which has been used for gravel and mineral extraction, reservoirs and industry. The river has been canalised to provide a navigable route for boats into eastern Hertfordshire, known as the Lee Navigation. While the lower Lea remains somewhat polluted, its upper stretch and tributaries, classified as chalk streams, are a major source of drinking water for London. A diversion known as the New River, opened in 1613, abstracts clean water away from the lower stretch of the river for drinking. Its origins in the Chilterns contribute to the extreme hardness (high mineral content) of London tap water.

    How do you feel, loving a rose?
    Guarding her life day and night
    How do you feel, losing that rose?
    Killed by a storm you can't fight
    (Lea, Lea) Girl, now you're gone
    (Leaving, leaving behind) The memory of your smile that will never leave my mind
    Where are those words I heard you say?
    You would forever be mine
    Where are those words?
    How can I pray, losing a love so divine?
    (Lea, Lea) Girl, now you're gone
    (Leaving, leaving behind) The memory of your smile that will never leave my mind
    (Lea, Lea) Girl, now you're gone
    (Leaving, leaving behind) The memory of your smile that will never leave my mind
    (Lea, Lea) Girl, now you're gone
