    As the tears from his eyes, they did flow,
    Till at length they arrived safe in harbour
    Carlirn and her sailor bold.
    11. Straight away to her father they went
    She in jacket and trousers so blue
    The moment he knew her he fainted
    When first she appeared in his view
    12. O, father, dear father, forgive me
    And deprive me of riches and gold
    Grant me one request, Im contented
    To wed with this young sailor bold
    13. Her father admired young William
    And endowed them with silver and gold
    Now they are married and contented
    Carlirn and her young sailor bold
