3  "Pm going away tomorrow to tarry for a while.
So far from my dear darling, it's about five hundred mile, I hope the time is comin' that I and you shall meet, With words and looks or kisses we will each other greet."
4  Where the cannons are loudly roaring, and bullets by showers fall, And drums and fifes are beating to drown the wounded man's call. Stand steady by your captain, let bombs and grapeshot fly, Trust in God, your Saviour, but keep your powder dry.
I'VE RAMBLED THIS COUNTRY BOTH EARLYE AND LATE
I Pve rambled this country both earlye and late, Hard was my fortune and sad was my fate: I came unto my love's door expecting to get in; Instead of seeing pleasure, my troubles just begin.
[143]
