ttLtie GARLAND. 189 Though afar frae her I wander, On my dear ane still I ponder ; Ilka day but makes me fonder — Love like mine can never dee. From the day when I first met her. My desire has been to get her ; Come what may I'll ne'er forget her Until death shall close my e'e. THE CASTLE OF THE GLEN. (Translated by Hector MacDougall). I'm placed in a dungeon so dreary, A chamber surrounded with gloom ; My days in this prison are weary. Awaiting my dark day of doom. No words of regret can avail... me : My tale is unheeded by all. And though death now so soon must assail me. Yet that cannot my dear one recall. No sleep can respond to my sobbing ; I'm weary awaiting the dawn. With fevers my brows are a-throbbing ; My thoughts by that grave near the lawn^ On that heart that was always so cheery, Those lips so enthralling in song — O, that I were enclasped with my dearie. With love thoughts to guide us along. Though nought may redeem that sad story. Nor from death can my loved one return ; Yet, soon I shall meet her in Glory, The land where no more we can mourn.
