A Song (continued)
“Lord Levette he stood at his own stable door ¶ And mounted his milk white steed”
(continued from previous page)125
lady Ann sweet bell said he.

O that is two long for true lovers
to part
And that is two long for me
And that is two long for true
lovers to part
And never again to meet.

And as he was crossing the
raging sea
Strange thoughts came into his
head
he dreamt he had a true lover
at home.
and again he dreamt she was
dead.
If she is dead the Captain
replied
Its her no more you'll see
but i'll never sleep three nights of my life
rill i see her dead or alive.(continues on next page)
