    Oh, what’s the matter wi’ you, my lass,
    An’ where’s your dashin Jimmy?
    The sowdger boys have picked him up
    And sent him far, far frae me.

    All the familiar horrors we
    Associate with others
    Are coming fast along our way:
    The wind is warning in our tree
    And morning papers still betray
    The shrieking of the mothers.
