1860年の曲「I'll Twine 'Mid the Ringlets」の元々の歌詞は、印刷された楽譜からそのまま(イタリック、句読点、大文字などもそのまま)転記すると次のようになる。
I'll twine 'mid the ringlets Of my raven black hair, The lilies so pale And the roses so fair, The myrtle so bright With an emerald hue, And the pale aronatus With eyes of bright blue. I'll sing, and I'll dance, My laugh shall be gay, I'll cease this wild weeping Drive sorrow away, Tho' my heart is now breaking, He never shall know, That his name made me tremble And my pale cheek to glow.
