W: W:The deed that I dar'd, could it merit their malice, W:A king and a father to place on his throne W:His right are these hills, and his right are those valleys, W:Where the wild beasts find shelter, tho I can find none! W:But 'tis not my suff'rings this wretched, forlorn- W:My brave gallant friends,'Tis your ruin I mourn! W:Your faith prov'd so loyal in hot bloody trial, W:Alas! can I make it no better return K:G E|B,EF G2F/E/|F/-G/A/-G/F/-E/ DEF|GBG AG/-F/E/-D/|B,EE E2E| BEF G2F/E/|F/-G/A/-G/F/-E/ DEF|GBG AG/-F/E/-D/|B,EE E2E/-F/| GBB B2A/G/|FAA A2d/c/|Bef g3/2f/e|Be^d e2e/-f/| g3/2f/e dcB|AFd D3/2E/F|GBG AG/-F/E/-D/|B,3/2E/E E2||
