    Let your wringlets fall down on my brow and my breast love,
    Draw near till I press thee to my fond and true heart.
    IV
    Fare-thee-well love, Fare-thee-well love, I hear the death token,
    The pale moon is shining its last beams on me,
    Fare-thee-well love, Fare-thee-well love, the last words are spoken,
    And no more in this world your Emmet you'll see.
