LORD IyLLLN'S DAUGHTER.
A CHIEFTAIN, 20 the highlands bound,
Cries, Boa,man, do not tarry!
And I'll give thee silver pound,
To row us Ger the ferry
Now who be We, would cross LochSyle,
I his dark and stormy water T.
Oh I'm tho chief of Ulva's isle,
And this Lord Ulhns daughter
- AID fast before her masters men
Three days we've fed together,
For should he find us in the glen,
IS NV blood would stain the heather.
His horsemen hard behind US ride,
Should they cur steps discover.
Z Then who will cheer my bonny bride,
When they have slain her lover
Outspoke the hardy highland white,
I'll go, my chief--I'm ready ;-
Sc II is not for your silver bright,
But for. your wnisone iaey !:
And by nav word the bonny bird
Z Tn danger shall not larry
J q So, though the waves are raging whlter
& I'll row you Ger the terry.
Bytfis the storm grew loud apace'
The water wrath was shrieklng;
And in the scowl of heaven each iaos
Grew dark as they were speaking.
But still as wilder blew the wind,
And as the eight grew drearer,
Adown the glen rode armed men,
Their trampling sounded nearer.
oh haste thee, haste 7 the lady cries,
Though tempests round Us gather,
I'll meet the raging OF the skies;
But not an angry father
The boat has left stormy land,
A stormy sea before her -
When oh ! too strong for human hand
The tempest gather DER her.
And still they row'd amidst the roar
Ofwasers fast prevailing:
Lord Ullin reach'd that fatal shore,
His wrath was chang'd to waimg.
For sore dismay'd, through storm and shade
His child he did discover -
+ Ono lovely hand she stretcht for and,
And one was round her lover.
Come back, come back / he cries in erie
Across this stormy water;
& And I'll forgive your highland chief,
My dsnghter--oh my daughter !
,Twas vain !: the loud waves lasht the shore
Return or aid preventing -
The waters wild went DER has child
And he was left lamenting.
