That's the love I bear thee!
I swear and vow, that only thou
Shall ever be my Dearie.
Only thou I swear and vow,
Shall ever be my dearie.
Lassie, say thou lo'es me;
Or if thou wilt na be my ain,
Say na thou'lt refuse me:
If it winna, canna be,
Thou for thine may chuse me,
Let me, Lassie, quickly die,
Trusting that thou lo'es me.
Lassie, let me quickly die,
Trusting that thou lo'es me.
MARY, I BELIEV'D THEE TRUE
Mary I believ'd thee true,
And I was blest in thus believing;
But now I mourn that e'er I knew,
A girl so fair and so deceiving.
Few have ever lov'd like me,
Oh! I have lov'd thee too sincerely ;
And few have e'er deceiv'd like thee,.
Alas! deceived me too severely;
