Where a' the steeds did stand, And he's taken one of the best steeds That was in her father's hand. He's got on, and she's got on, And fast as they could flee. Until they came to a lonesome part — A rock by the side of the sea. " Loup off the steed, " says false Sir John, "Your bridal bed you see; Here have I drowned seven young ladies. The eighth ane you shall be. " "Cast off, cast off, my May Colvin, All, and your silken gown, For it's ower good and ower costly To rot in the salt sea-foam. "C...ast off, cast off, my May Colvin, All, and your embroidered shoon, For they are ower good and ower costly To rot in the salt sea-foam. " MAY COLVIN. 229 "O turn you about, O false Sir John, And look to the leaf o' the tree, For it never became a gentleman A naked woman to see. " He turned himself straight round about To look to the leaf o' the tree; So swift as May Colvin was To throw him into the sea. •' O help, O help, my May Colvin ! O help, or else I drown, I'll tak' you hame to your father's bower.
