Ye seldom see them dry;

Nae wonder, nae wonder, my bonnie boy,

Though she suld brast and die!

“For she was born a king’s daughter,

Of noble birth and fame,

And now she is Hynde Etin’s wife,

Wha ne’er got Christendome.

“But we’ll shoot the laverock in the lift,

The buntlin on the tree;

And ye’ll take theme hame to your mither,
