FORLORN

You that would not tread on a worm For your gentle nature . . . In the night, O the night, O the night of weeping!
ix.Murder would not veil your sin, Marriage will not hide it,Earth and Hell will brand your name, Wretch you must abide it . . . In the night, O the night, Long before the dawning.
x.Up, get up, and tell him all, Tell him you were lying!
