| The Northern Lasses lamentation, / OR / The unhappy Maids Misfortune / Since she did from her friends depart / No earthly thing can cheer her heart / But still she doth her case Lament, / Being always fill'd with discontent, / Resolving to do nought but mourn, / Till to the North she doth return | |
