No living creature came that way.

I took his body on my back,

And whiles I gaed, and whiles I satte;

I digg'd a grave, and laid him in,

And happ'd him with the sod sae green.

But think na ye my heart was sair,

When I laid the moul on his yellow hair?

O think na ye my heart was wae,

When I turn'd about, away to gae?

Nae living man I'll love again,
