Talk’d love in her mellow light.

Ben Fisher had never a pipe of clay,

And never a dram drank he,

So he loved at home with his wife to stay,

And they chatted right merrily—

Right merrily they chatted on,

Her babe slept on her breast,

While a chubby rogue, with rosy smile,

On his father’s knee found rest,

On his father’s knee found rest.
