lyrics

“The lonely mountains o’er,
And the resounding shore,
A voice of weeping heard, and loud lament;
From haunted spring and dale,
Edged with poplar pale,
The parting genius is, with sighing sent.”

“And as he rode over the more,
He had seen a lady where she sat
Between oaks and a green hollow;
She was clad in red scarlet.
“Then there as should have stood her mouth,
Then there was set her eye;
The other was in her forehead fast,
The way that she might see.
“Her nose was crook’d and turn’d outward,
Her mouth stood foul awry;
A worse-form’d lady then she was,
Never man saw with his eye.”

This woman, old, poor; from the world’s ill usage rendered malicious,
Is charged with the evils lashing upon kindred
Look upon her, now! Look upon her works, and despair!

See her now better - scratched and gouged - With no skin left to be laid bare, a pale sight!
Three times in a trembling accent she’d wail
With a keen scythe behind her
