(illegible text) loud and ſwelling forms I heard,
as on my loneſome bed I lay'd,
⟨All⟩ night alone for Will I fear'd,
all night for Will alone I pray'd.
Chor Still as the ſhips, &c.
⟨The⟩ bride-knot which my love did wear,
looſe hung a pendant o'er my door,
⟨And⟩ when it told the wind was fair,
I fancy'd ſoon he'd be on ſhore.
Chor. Still as the ſhips, &c.
⟨At⟩ length the very ſhip I ſpy'd,
in which my conſtant Will had fail'd;
With haſte I ran to Humber-ſide:
and loud and oft the ſailors hail'd:
⟨The⟩ deck they travers'd to and fro,
and anſwer'd nought but yo, ya, yo.
⟨The⟩ boatſwain, now full near the ſhore,
I aſked for Will---he ſhook his head:
⟨I⟩ fear ſaid I, he is no more---
his anſwer was,Poor Will is dead!"
⟨Ah⟩ me! I fell, oppreſs'd with woe!
and heard no more their yo, ye, yo.
