( 3 ) So saddle to me the black horse he cry'd

my servant shall ride on the grey ;

and I will go to bonny Aberdeen,

forthwith to bring her away.

They were not a mile from Aberdeen,

a mile but only one,

Till he met with his two daughters,

but away was Lady Jean;

where is your sister maidens?

where is your sister, now?

where is your sister, maidens?

that she's not walking with you?

pardon us, they did say;

pardon us, they did say;

Lady Jean is with captain Ogilvie,

and from him she would not stay.

Then he came to bonny Aberdeen,

and down upon the green,

There did he see captain Ogilvie,

a-training of his men.
