Won't you help support DayPoems? Rare WillieBy Anonymous18th CenturyChild Ballad 214 O Willy's rare and Willy's fair And Willy's wondrous bonny, And Willy says he'll marry me Gin e'er he marries any. O came you by yon waterside, Pulled you the rose or lily, Or came you by yon meadow green, Or saw you my sweet Willy ? She sought him east, she sought him west, She sought him broad and narrow, Till in the clifting of a crag She found him drowned in Yarrow. His hair it was three-quarters long, Three-quarters long and yellow. She twined it round her lily hand And drew him out of Yarrow. Yestreen I made my bed full broad, Tonight I'll make it narrow. For all the livelong winter's night I lie twinned of my marrow. DayPoems Poem No. 2556 Comment on DayPoems? If you are like us, you have strong feelings about poetry, and about each poem you read.
