Nor rest nor pause young Angus knew;

The tear that gather’d in his eye

He left the mountain breeze to dry;

Until, where Teith’s young waters roll,

Betwixt him and a wooded knoll,

That graced the sable strath with green,

The chapel of St. Bride was seen.

Swoln was the stream, remote the bridge,

But Angus paused not on the edge;

Though the dark waves danced dizzily,
