[00:25.76]Take the robe from off thy form,
[00:31.45]And cease thine hair to braid,
[00:38.08]Thy love to thee will come no more,
[00:43.65]He woos another maid,
[00:50.13]And broken are the many vows,
[00:56.32]That he hath pledged to thee,
[01:02.47]He woos another maid, and this,
[01:08.23]My bridal morn should be.

[03:00.79]To hide the fast ascending tears,
[03:06.45]

[03:26.96]And there she saw the false of heart,
[03:32.77]Receive another bride,
[03:39.09]The bridal pageant swept along,
