Broun Edom
BROWN ADAM—B
1
[OMITTED][OMITTED]
For wha ere had a lealer luve
Than Broun Edom the smith?
2
His studie was o the beaten gowd,His hammer o the pith;
His cords waur o the gude green silk,
That blew his bellows with.
3
It fell out ance upon a timeBroun Edom he thoucht lang,
That he wald gae to see his luve,
By the le licht o the mune.
