Easter day was a holiday | |
Of all days of the year, | |
And all the little schoolfellows went out to play | |
But Sir William was not there. | |
Mamma went to the School wife house | |
And knocked at the ring, | |
Saying, 'Little Sir William, if you are there, | |
Pray let your mother in.' | |
The School wife open'd the door and said: | |
'He is not here today. | |
He is with the little schoolfellows out on the green | |
Playing some pretty play.' | |
Mamma went to the Boyne water | |
That is so wide and deep, | |
Saying, 'Little Sir William, if you are there, | |
Oh pity your mother's weep.' | |
'How can I pity your weep, mother, | |
And I so long in pain? | |
For the little pen knife sticks close to my heart | |
And the School wife hath me slain. | |
'Go home, go home, my mother dear, | |
And prepare my winding sheet, | |
For tomorrow morning before eight o'clock, | |
You with my body shall meet. | |
'And lay my Prayer Book at my head, | |
And my grammar at my feet, | |
That all the little schoolfellows as they pass by | |
May read them for my sake.' |
