ENGLISH SONG AND BALLAD MUSIC.
Whene'er he filled his can,
He would drink to Marian,
To that kind and lovely maid;
And he vow'd her smile
Would the worst of cares beguile,
While tippling in the greenwood shade ;
As the bowl we pass,
Each quaffs it to his lass,
Vowing none to be so fair as she :
So, though bold Robin's gone,
Still his heart lives on,
And we drink to him with three times three.
The following is another second part to the preceding tune : —
