Her heaving bosom lily-white;

It was her een sae bonnie blue.

She talk'd, she smil'd, my heart she wyl'd, beguiled

She charm'd my soul I wist na how;

And aye the stound, the deadly wound, pang

Came frae her een sae bonnie blue. from

But ‘spare to speak, and spare to speed’—

She'll aiblins listen to my vow: perhaps

Should she refuse, I'll lay my dead death
