MISCELLANEOUS 205
Who is she the melodious lady-lord,
At the base of the knoll,
At the mouth of the wave ?
Not the lark,
Not the merle.
Not the mavis,
On the bough is she.
Who is she the melodious lady-lord,
At the base of the knoll.
At the mouth of the wave ?
Not the murmuring ptarmigan
Of the hill is she.
Who is she the melodious lady-lord,
At the base of the knoll.
At the mouth of the wave ?
Not the grilse of the stream.
Not the seal of the wave.
Not the sea maiden
Of May is she.
Who is she the melodious lady-lord.
At the base of the knoll.
At the mouth of the wave ?
Not the dame of the distaff.
Not the damsel of the lyre,
Not the golden-haii-ed maid
Of the flocks is she.
