Strana 105 - That name does not belang to me; I am but the Queen of fair elfland, That am hither come to visit thee." "Harp and carp, Thomas," she said; " Harp and carp along wi me; And if ye dare to kiss my lips, Sure of your bodie I will be.
Strana 133 - He turned him around, and grimly he frown'd ; Then he laugh'd right scornfully — ' He who says the mass-rite for the soul of that knight, May as well say mass for me. " ' At the lone midnight hour, when bad spirits have power, In thy chamber will I be.
Strana 104 - TRUE THOMAS lay on Huntlie bank ; A ferlie he spied wi' his ee ; And there he saw a ladye bright, Come riding down by the Eildon tree. Her shirt was o' the grass-green silk, Her mantle o' the velvet fyne ; At ilka tett of her horse's mane, Hung fifty siller bells and nine.
Strana 107 - He has gotten a coat of the even cloth, And a pair of shoes of velvet green ; And, till seven years were gane and past, True Thomas on earth was never seen.
Strana 134 - The bold baron's brow then changed, I trow, From high blood-red to pale — "The grave is deep and dark — and the corpse is stiff and stark — So I may not trust thy tale.

Strana 131 - He held him close and still ; And he whistled thrice for his little footpage, His name was English Will. " Come thou hither, my little footpage ; Come hither to my knee ; Though thou art young and tender of age, I think thou art true to me. " Come, tell me all that thou hast seen, And look thou tell me true ! Since I from Smaylho'me tower have been, What did thy lady do?
Strana 133 - Then changed, I trow, was that bold Baron's brow, From the dark to the blood-red high ; " Now, tell me the mien of the knight thou hast seen, For, by Mary, he shall die ! " — " His arms shone full bright, in the beacon's red light; His plume it was scarlet and blue ; On his shield was a hound, in a silver leash bound, And his crest was a branch of the yew.
