But no. Too soon I voun' my charm abroke.
Noo comely soul in white like her—
Noo soul a-steppen light like her—
An' nwone o' comely height like her—
Went by; but all my grief agean awoke.

A hungry lion give a grievous roar;
The grievous roar echoed along the shore.

Another lion give a grievous roar;
And the first lion thought the last a bore.
