'And fair Marg'ret, and rare Marg'ret,

And Marg'ret o' veritie, Gin e'er ye love another man,

Ne'er love him as ye did me.'

��Fair Annie

reivers they stole Fair Annie, As she walk'd by the sea; But a noble knight was her ransom soon, Wi' gowd and white monie.

She bided in strangers' land wi' him, And none knew whence she cam ;

She lived in the castle wi' her love, But never told her name.

It 's narrow, narrow, mak your bed,

And learn to lie your lane ; For I'm gaun owre the sea, Fair Annie,

A braw Bride to bring hame. Wi' her I will get gowd and gear,

Wi' you I ne'er gat nane.

4 But wha will bake my bridal bread,

Or brew my bridal ale? And wha will welcome my bright Bride,

That I bring owre the dale?'

' It 's I will bake your bridal bread,

And brew your bridal ale ; And I will welcome your bright Bride,

That you bring owre the dale.'
