High upon the gallows tree,
Swung the noble hearted three,
By the vengefnl tyrant stricken in their bloom
But they met him, face to face,
With the spirit of their raca.

And thy cheeks unprofan'd by a
tear ;
That the fervour and faith of a soul can

To which time will but make thee

Oh ! the heart that has truly lov'd never

But a truly loves on to the l e;
As the turns on her god
when he sets,
The same look which she turn'd who
