Jamieson's Popular Ballads, I, 18; Jamieson, in The Scots Magazine, 1803, LXV, 698, stanzas 1, 3.
1
Gil Morrice sat in silver wood,He whistled and he sang:
‘Whar sall I get a bonny boy
My errand for to gang?’
2
He ca'd his foster-brither Willie:‘Come, win ye hose and shoon,
And gae unto Lord Barnard's ha,
And bid his lady come.’
3
And she has taen the bloody head,And cast it i the brim,
Syne gathered up her robes o green,
And fast she followed him.
