Down by the salley gardens

Down by the salley gardens

my love and I did meet;

She passed the salley gardens

with little snow-white feet.

She bid me take love easy,

as the leaves grow on the tree;

But I, being young and foolish,

with her would not agree.

In a field by the river

my love and I did stand,

And on my leaning shoulder

she laid her snow-white ___（2）__.

She bid me take life easy,

as the grass grows on the weirs;

But I was young and foolish,

and now am full of tears.
