The last two lines in Hugh Shields' book are a bit different from your post, Ian. They are:

Beneath yon bower where verdant flowers they bedecked that lovelie maid,
Oh, she blessed the day she chanced to stray by Todd's sweet rural shade.


Well, it takes care of your objection to the "and" in the last line, anyway.

I have seen songs with extra verse lines that didn't come on the last verse. I can't give you any titles off the top of my head and I will surely admit that it's rare.
