Hannah May Scott - Lady Mary's Wedding

Lady Mary was young
Lady Mary was fair
She longed for the hand of her lover

They met one fine day
And he asked her to wait
To be wed before he would touch her

Be bold be bold
Be bold be bold
Be bold but not too bold

She crept to his home
She went all alone
For she longed to know of her lover

In a chamber she spied
Where he lay with a bride
And around him the bones of many others

Be bold be bold
But not too bold
Lest your hearts blood should run cold

On the day of the wedding
He found her quite white
She told him of disquieting dreams

Of how he had hacked off
The hand of his bride
To take from her finger her ring

Not so not so
Not so he said
Not so and nor was it so

With a shout she arose
Pulled the hand from her clothes
Yes it is, yes it is so she cried

With the hand she accused
And he sat quite unmoved
As he brothers cut him down with their knives

Be bold be bold
But not too bold
Lest your hearts blood should run cold
