“Young men and young maidins, I pray lend an ear”
I
Young men and young maidens
I pray lend an ear,
To hear the sad fate
Of two lovers so dear
Concerning young Betsy
of Ballintownbray
And the lord of the moorland
Who led her astray.

Lay down for to sleep
Young Betsy came to him
And o'er him did weep
Saying you are the young lord
Who caused me to roam
Far away from my friends
And my own native home.(continues on next page)- Collector
