“Tonight you see my face.
Maybe never more you’ll gaze
On the man that left you for his friends and kin,
For by the hard command of the Lord that rules the land
On a ship I’ll be borne from Cruckhaun Finn.”

“You know your beauty bright
Has made him think delight
More than from any fair one he will gain.
You know that all his will strains and strives around you till
As the hawk upon his hand you are as tame.”

She then to him replied,
“I’ll no longer you deny,
And I’ll let you have the pleasure of my charms.
It’s now I’ll be your bride, let whatever will betide,
And it’s we will lie in one another’s arms.”
