Lyke Wake Dirge |
When thou from hence away art past |
Any nighte and alle |
To Whinny-muir thou com’st at last |
And Christe receive thy saule |
If thou gavest hosen and shoon |
Any nighte and alle |
And sit thee down and put them on |
And Christe receive thy saule |
Well, if hosen and shoon thou ne’er gav’st nane |
Any nighte and alle |
The whinnes sall prick thee to the bare bane |
And Christe receive thy saule |
From Brig o' Dread whence thou may’st pass |
Any nighte and alle |
To Purgatory fire thou com’st at last |
And Christe receive thy saule |
If ever thou gav’st meat or drink |
Any nighte and alle |
The fire sall never make thee shrink |
And Christe receive thy saule |
If meat or drink thou ne’er gav’st nane |
Any nighte and alle |
The fire will burn thee to the bare bane |
And Christe receive thy saule |
