the word of God, or Joining with the
mellow voice in his praise and worship.
On this night, she expected a visit from
her lover, that they might fix their mar

and happy that their child was about to
be welded to respectable Shepherd,
had gone to pay a visit to their nearest

1872.
"FAITHLEss SALLY BROWN.
''An Old Ballad.
Young Ben he was nice young man,
A carpenter bytrade;
And he fell in love with Sally Brown,
That was lady's maid.
But as they fetched walk one day,
They met press gang crew;
And Sally she did faint away,
Whilst Ben he was bro't to.
The Boatswain swore with wicked words,
Enough to shock asaint,
That tho she did seem IN At,
Twas nothing but jesnt.
Come girl, said he, hold up your head,
He'll be as good as me;
For when your swain is in our boat,
A boatslpain he will be.
SO when they'd made their game of her,
And taken off her elf,
She reused and found she only was
A coming to herself
And is he gone, and is he gone?
She cried, and wept outright:
Then will TO the water side,
And see him out of sight.
A waterman came up to her,
Now, young woman, said he,
If you weep on SO, you wall make
Eye-water in the sea.
Alas! they've taken my beau, Ben,
To sail with old Benbow,
And her woe began to run afresh,
As if she had said gee woe!
Sayshe, they've only taken him
To the Tender ship you see;
The Tender, cried poor Sally Brown,
What hardship that must be!
0! would were mermaid now,
For then I'd follow him,
But oh! I'm not fishwoman,
And so cannot SWIM.
Alas! was not born beneath
Inc dAQ OSoACS1
So Imust curse my cruel stars
And walk about in Wales.
Now Ben had sai'd to many place
That's underneath the Id;
But in two years the ship came home
And all the sails were furl'd.
But when he called on Sally Brown,
To see how she went on,
He 70 md she'd got another Ben,
Whose christian name was John.
o Sally Brown, o Sally Brown,
How could you serve me SO,
I've met with many breeze before,
But never such blow!
Then reading on his 'baco box,
lie heav'd heavy sigh,
And then began To eye his pipe,
And then to pipe his eye.
And then he tried to sing "Alls Well"
But could not, tho ne tried,
His head was turn'd, and so he chew'd
His pigtail till he died.
His death, which happen'd In his birth,
At forty odd befel;
They went and told the sexton, and
The Sexton TOLD the bell.
