3 #5 The Queen's Marie
MARIE HAMILTON 'S to the kirk gane, Wi' ribbons in her hair;
The King thought mair o' Marie Hamilton Than ony that were there.
Marie Hamilton 's to the kirk gane
WY ribbons on her breast, The King thought mair o' Marie Hamilton
Than he listened to the priest.
Marie Hamilton 's to the kirk gane,
WY gloves upon her hands; The King thought mair o' Marie Hamilton
Than the Queen and a 5 her lands.
She hadna been about the King's court
A month, but barely one, Till she was beloved by a' the King's court
And the King the only man.
She hadna been about the King's court
A month, but barely three, Till frae the King's court Marie Hamilton,
Marie Hamilton durstna be.
The King is to the Abbey gane,
To pu' the Abbey tree, To scale the babe frae Marie's heart;
But the thing it wadna be.
