When she did meet wi' vo'k a-know'd

The best, her love did speak in tears.

She walk'd wi' thee, an' had noo fears

O' thy unkindness, till she zeed

Herzelf a-cast off lik' a weed,

An' hope a-left behind her.

Thy slight turn'd peäle her cherry lip;

Her sorrow, not a-zeed by eyes,

Wer lik' the mildew, that do nip

A bud by darksome midnight skies.
