She scarce was to her chamber gane, Nor yet was well set down.
Till on the sofa where she sat.
Fell in a deadly swoon.
Her father and her seven brithers.
They made for her a bier ; The one half o't was gude red gowd, The other siller clear.
THE SCOTTISH SQUIRE. 239 Her seven sisters were employed In making her a sark ; The one half o't was cambric fine, The other needle wark.
Then out it speaks her auld step-dame, Sat on the sofa's end ; Ye'll drap the het lead on her cheek, Sae do you on her c...hin ; For women will use mony a wile Their true loves for to win.
Then up it raise her eldest brither, Into her bower he's gane ; Then in it came her youngest brither, The het lead to drap on.
He drapt it by her cheek, her cheek, Sae did he by her chin ; Sae did he by her comely hause, He knew life was therein.
The bier was made wi' red gowd laid, S^e curious round about ; A private entrance there contriv'd, That her breath might win out.
The first an' kirk in fair Scotland, They gar'd the bells be rung ; .
