“So ye say, but time will tell;

My daughter’s very well at home

So ye may pack and homeward roam.”

Again the one without exclaims in resolute tones:—

“Your home no more she’s doomed to share

Like every marriageable fair,

Her father’s roof she quits for one

Where she is mistress; wooed and won.

It now remains to see her wedded,

And homeward brought and safely bedded.
