Early One Morning audio clip
Early one morning, just as the sun was rising I heard a maid singing in the valley below "O don't deceive me, O do not leave me ! How could you use a poor maiden so ?"
"O gay is the garland, fresh are the roses I've culled from the garden to bind on thy brow. O don't deceive me, O do not leave me ! How could you use a poor maiden so ?"
"Remember the vows that you made to your Mary, Remember the bow'r where you vow'd to be true; O don't deceive me, O never leave me ! How could you use a poor maiden so ?"
Thus sung the poor maiden, her sorrow bewailing Thus sung the poos maiden in the valley below "O don't deceive me, O do not leave me ! How could you use a poor maiden so ?"
