Would grant the boon I crave,

Sin' Jamie's in his grave 1
And see, his gentle spirit comes,
To show me on my way ;
Surpris'd, nae doubt, I still am here,
Sair wondering at my stay.
' I come, I come, my Jamie dear ;
And, O ! wi' what gude will
I follow, wheresoe'er ye lead !
Ye canna lead to iU.'
Said she ; — and soon a deadly pale
Her faded cheek possess'd ;
Her waefu' heart forgot to beat ;
Her sorrows sank to rest.
