Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from St. Mary's Muse, Vol. 3: June, 1880
But Ula, the rein of her palfrey detained, And raising her large eyes in sorrow, began 0! Lady, the bad man with bloody deed's stained, Still haunts these green woods, and will seize if he can, Thy beauteous form, and will tear thee from all That love thee; and grief will thy young heart befall. 0! List to old Ula - expose not thy life This moment fierce Ferguson's fury is rife, And near thee he waits! Of the next ride beware! For he surely will hear thee - oh! Who can tell where? She vanished, and Annie with terror was filled, But soon her brave brother her gentle heart stilled, At old Ula he scoffed, and he laughed at her fears, And fair Annie blushed at her maidenly fears. And so, to assure her fond brother, agreed At morn, in the chase, to rein fearless her steed. Ah! Woe! For the sorrow his proud heart shall know! And crushed be her parents with anguish and woe.
