Francis James Child

“ Severly I will work;
The well-warst vow that I'm to vow
Is never to gang to kirk."
For seven years now Fair Annie,
In the holy nunnery lay she,
And seven years Sweet Willie lay,
In languish like to die. ”

“ Before that ye seek in;
Never to kiss a young man's mouth
That goes upon the grun.
"And ye must vow anither vow,
Severely ye must work;
The well-warst vow that ye're to vow,
Is never to gang to kirk." ”
