The Wing has written a braid letter,
And fignd it wi* his hand;

The teir blinded his ee.
•O <juha- is this has don this, deid,
This ill deid don to me;
To fend me out this time o* the zeir,
To ; fail- upon the fe?
Mak haste, mak haste, my mirry men all.
Our guid fchip fails the worne.
O f»y na fae, my master deir,
For I feir a deadlie itorme.
Late iat»i yestreen T saw the new moon<
Wi' the auld nioonc in her arme;
And I feir, I feir, my deir master,
That we will come to harme.

To weet their cork heild schoone;
Bot lang owre a the play wer playd,
Thair hats the} swam aboone.
O lang, lang, may thair ladies sit
Wi* thair fans into thair hand.
Or eir they see sir Patrick Spence
Cum sailing to the land.

Wi thair gold kerns in thair hair,
Waiting for thair ain deir lords,
For they'll se thame na mair.
Ha'f owre, ha f owre to Aberdour
Its fiftie fadom deip:
And thair lies guid sir Patrick Spence,
Wi' the Scots lords at his feit.
