3-2b   23    4 4 -34  -4  -4  -45
 A    poor wayfaring man of grief

-5     5 4   4 -3  4  -4 3   3
Hath often crossed me on my way

3-2b 23  4 4 -3 4  -4 -4 -4 5
Who sued so humbly for relief

-5   5  -5 6 -5 5 -4 4 -4  4
That I could never answer nay.

5-5   6   6   6-5   5  -5 -5  -5 5
 I   had not pow'r to ask his name

 -4   5   4  4    -3 4 -4  3  3
Where-to he went or whence he came

3-2b  23  4     4-3 4    -4 -4 -45
Yet there was something in his eye

-5 5 -5  6   -55  -4  4   -4   4
That won my love; I knew  not why
