�The Anchors Weighed,
T h e tear feU g e n t l y from her e y e ,
W h e n last we parted on the s h o r e :
M y bosom heav'd with rnanv a sigh,
T o think I ne'er might see her ifjore.
D e a r y o u t h , she cried, and canst thou haste a w a y ,
M v heart will break, a little moment stay,
A l a s ! I cannot, cannot part f r o m thee,
T h e anchor's weigh"*! farewell, farewell, r e m e m b e r
me.
• W e e p not, my Love,' I trembling said,
4 Doubt
not a constant heart like mine ;
I ne'er can meet another maid
W h o s e charms can fix that heart like thine.*
4 G o t h e n / she cried, 1 but let thy constant mind
Oft think of her y o u leave in tears behind ;
A maid, this last embrace my pledge shall be. 1

But still the sound that I loe best,
A l a c k ! I canna hear.
Oh, noj sad an' slow !
T h e shadow lingers still ;
A n d like a tamely ghaist I stand,
A n d croon upon the hill.
I hear below the water roar,
T h e mill wi' clackin' din ;

O h , no, sad an' slow !
T h e s e are ftae sounds for me ;
T h e shadow o f our trv\sthv bush.
It creeps sae drearily.

A snood o f bonnie blue,

T o tie it. round her brow.
O h , no, sad an' slow !
T h e time it wjnna pass;
T h e shadow o f I hat weary thorn
Is tethered o n the grass.
O now I see her on the w a y ,
