For I have jdedfj-'d my virgin troth
Brave Arthur's fate to share,
And he lias gi'en to me his heart
Wi' a' its virtues rare.
The mind,whase every wish is pure,
Far dearer is to me;
And ere I'm fore'd to break my faith
111 lay me down and die.
So, trust me, when I swear to thee
By a' that is on high.
Though ye had a' this warld's gear,
My heart ye conld-na buy;
For lang-est life can ne'er repay
The love he bears to me;
And ere I'm fore'd to break my troth
III lay me down and die.
