Walter Scott - Cleveland Lyke-wake Dirge (Traditional
Work rating: Low

This ae nighte, this ae nighte, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
Fire and sleete and candle lighte, 
   And Christe receive thye saule. 

When thou from hence away are paste, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
To Whinny-muir thou comest at laste; 
   And Christe receive thye saule. 

If ever thou gavest hosen and shoon, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
Sit thee down, and put them on; 
   And Christe receive thye saule. 

If hosen and shoon thou ne`er gavest nane, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
The whinnes shall pricke thee to the bare bane, 
   And Christe receive thye saule. 

From Whinny-muir when thou mayst passe, 
   Every nighte and alle ; 
To Brigg o` Dread thou comest at laste, 
   And Christe receive thye saul 

(A stanza wanting) 

From Brigg o` Dread when thou mayst passe, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
To purgatory fire thou comest at laste; 
   And Christ receive thye saule. 

If ever thou gavest meat or drinke, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
The fire shall never make thee shrinke; 
   And Christ receive thye saule. 

If meate or drinke thou never gavest nane, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
The fire will burn thee to the bare bane; 
   And Christe receive thye saule. 

This ae nighte, this ae nighte, 
   Every nighte and alle; 
Fire and sleete, and candle lighte, 
   And Christe receive thye saule.
