Lady And The Son
THE AND THE FARMER'S SON

Young lovers all, I draw near
And a you shall hear
Of how a was undone
By loving of a son.

His age, it was twenty-two
As I the do tell to you.
He was well formed in limb.
This lady in love with him.

She wrote him every day,
But he to her nothing say
Because he knew he was to wed
Sally, her chamber-maid.

As she was in the grove,
By she met with her own true love,
Saying, "Kind sir, upon my
I do to be your wife."

"O lady fair, cannot be
For you to be a to me,
you know I am engaged
To Sally, handsome chamber-maid."

She her hands and tore her hair,
And cried, "Alas I'm in despair.
How can you me so?" she said,
"All for a chambermaid?"

"If only I was from her
I could love you tenderly,
But I am to her by oath,
You I cannot wed you both."

The thought, "If that be so,
I soon will her overthrow,
For she my maid shall be
And we will the raging sea."

This lady had it so
All for to her overthrow
As this maiden lay asleep
She her body in the deep.

Now this fair on return
Found like vexatious burn
For never she be at rest
the deed she had confessed.

'Tis now she confined in jail.
The Lord have on her soul.
Distracted did this man run,
In Bedlam the farmer's son.

'Twas by the help of gold,
pretty maiden's life was sold.
'Tis now a and you may see
Has proved the of all three.
