YOUNG AKIN. |
||
|
When that these two sisters met,
She hail'd her courteouslie: ijc
" Come ben, come ben, my sister dear, This day ye'se dine wi' me."
" Ae bit I canno' eat, sister, Nor ae drop can I drink, Until I see my dear husband, iss
For lang for him I think."
" O where are all my rangers bold That I pay meat and fee, To search the forest far an' wide,
And bring Akin to me ? " mo
Out it speaks the wee little boy,— " Na, na, this maunna be ; Without ye grant a free pardon, I hope ye'U nae him see."
" 0 here I grant a free pardon, m
Well seal'd by my own han'; Ye may make search for, young Akin, As soon as ever you can."
They search'd the country wide and braid, The forests far and near, i?o
And found him into Elmond's-wood, Tearing his yellow hair. |
