Poem on Marriage

[?] [?] [?] lady [?] Scotland did Dwell She was
Courted by a Sailor who lovd her full [?] he promised
For to mary her return he did then remark What Sad
Fortune on this Couple Has [tape] As he was a Sailling
All on the Salt Sea A Storm Did Arise at his Sad Surprise
Marry A poor Seaman All on the lee Shore and Some they had
Sweethearts and Some they wives old and those poor Souls had to
Swim for there lives and this poor and unlucky young man had
A Chance to be one that lossed. A Short life in the watery tomb
As Soon as this fair maid She heard he was dead She was ravin[?] Distracted
Quit out of her head Saing A Deiu all pleasures Sense my jois are all
[?] and A grave Shall be insted of my new marriage bed as She was
[?]ing round robbin hoods Sands crying and [?]ing and ringing
[?] crying o cruel [?] [?] my r[?] an shore [?] [?]
Sweet face might Wold it one [?] as She was aranging around robbin
Hoods bay She Saw a young Sailor washed up by the waves and as
She Drew near him in amsed[?] She Did Stand for She new her own Trulove
By a mark on his hand She Said have i found youmy own Dearist
Dear then She hug him and She kiss him ten thousand times near She
Sais iam quite willing for to lay by you Side and A few moment after
This fair maid She Died in Robbin hoods Curch yard this
Couple was laid with A large double tomb stone plaicd
Over there heads Comes all you royal trulovers as you Do pass by
now weep and laments while this Couple Doth lie
