And the other half of the same verse: I wept it o'er with tears of grief, I'll sit and ne'er be weary, For pleasure there is none for me, Without sweet Highland Mary. So far we have 2 half verses from Highland Mary, one verse from The Irish Girl, a verse that could be part of the 'Died for Love' stock. Just need to crack the last 2 verses now. This is an absolutely typical traveller song of bits and pieces strung together.
