For th’ two young ladies were oft before.

She sent them word to take the key,

With all in the house for to make free;

But Kingsbro’ said that would not do,

Herself must rise, and quickly too.

The child ran back and told her plain,

Such a lang wife she ne’er saw nane,

As that was walking through the ha’,

Her like was never there awa’,

Therefore she’d go no more for fear,
