I oft have beard of the old man,
 * but now I'm fix'd at last

I wish grim death had catch'd him
 * before the knot was cast-

I wish grim death had watch'd him
 * and taken him at a call

Tl en I a young man would have got
 * to roll me from the wall.

When I go to fair or market,
 * I think the time full long,

My heart is always sorry
 * when I see my poor old man
