The English and Scottish Popular Ballads | ||
THE ELFIN KNIGHT—E
1
The Elfin Knight sits on yon hill,Ba ba lilly ba
Blowing his horn loud and shill.
And the wind has blawn my plaid awa
2
‘I love to hear that horn blaw;I wish him [here] owns it and a'.’
3
That word it was no sooner spoken,Than Elfin Knight in her arms was gotten.
4
‘You must mak to me a sark,Without threed, sheers or needle wark.’
