Summary - A love song in which a man addresses the love of his heart, a woman whom he calls beautiful Mary. He says that her cheeks are like the rowan, her eyes like the morning dew and her kisses like sugar, though she had never offered him one. In the final verse, he says his resting place will be under the sod if she will not marry him.
