Air - 'Comin' thro' the Rye.' <br /> <br /> <br />I've made a vow, I'll keep it true, <br />I'll never married be; <br />For the only ane that I think on <br />Will never think o' me. <br /> <br />Now gane to a far distant shore, <br />Their face nae mair I'll see; <br />But often will I think o' them, <br />That winna think o' me. <br /> <br />Gae owre, gae owre noo, gude Sir John, <br />Oh, dinna follow me; <br />For the only ane I ere thocht on, <br />Lies buried in the sea.<br /><br />Carolina Oliphant<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-maiden-s-vow/
