In all my soul theres not one place To let a rival enter ;Since she excels in every grace, In her my love shall the seas shall cease to flow, Their waves the Alps shall cover ;On Greenlands ice shall roses grow, Before I cease to love her. The next time I gang o^er the muir, She shall a lover find me ;And that my faith is firm and pure, Tho I left her behind Hymens sacred bonds shall chain My heart to her fair bosom ;There, while my being does remain, My love more fresh shall blossom.
