The Miller's Melody
THE TWA SISTERS—J
1
There were two ladies playing ball,Hey, ho, my Nannie O
A great lord came to court them all.
The swan she does swim bonnie O
2
He gave to the first a golden ring,He gave to the second a far better thing.
3
He made a harp of her breast-bone[OMITTED]
4
He set it down upon a stone,And it began to play its lone.
