Gossen uppå taket satt i det strida regnet, Fick han se hvar flickan gick i den gröna ängen. Ängen var grön, flickan var skön, gossen var full af falskhet. Se'n han sade: flicka kom, trohet skall du finna! Aldrig skall jag svika dig, om du blir min qvinna. Sviker jag dig, straffe Gud mig på min sista timma.
