She turned her body round about,And spied the corpse a coming:

"Lay down,lay down the corpse,"she said,"That I may look upon him."

With scornful eye she look-ed down,Her cheek with laughter swellin';

Whilst all her friends cried out amain,UNWORTHY BARBARA ALLEN.

When he was dead,and laid in grave,Her heart was struck with sorrow,"O mother,mother,make my bed,For I shall die to-morrow!

"Hard-hearted creature him to slight,Who lov-ed me so dearly:

O that I had been more kind to him,When he was alive and near me!"

She,on her deathbed as she lay,Begged to be buried by him;

And sore repented of the day,That she did e'er deny him.

"Farewell,"she said,"ye maidens all,And shun the fault I fell in:

Henceforth take warning by the fall Of cruel Barbara Allen."
