In Scarlet towne where I was borne	A
There was a faire maid dwellin	A
Made every youth crye wel awaye	B
Her name was Barbara Allen	A
	-
All in the merrye month of May	C
When greene buds they were swellin	A
Yong Jemmye Grove on his death bed lay	C
For love of Barbara Allen	A
	-
He sent his man unto her then	A
To the town where shee was dwellin	A
You must come to my master deare	D
Giff your name be Barbara Allen	A
	-
For death is printed on his face	E
And ore his hart is stealin	A
Then haste away to comfort him	F
O lovelye Barbara Allen	A
	-
Though death be printed on his face	E
And ore his harte is stealin	A
Yet little better shall he bee	G
For bonny Barbara Allen	A
	-
So slowly slowly she came up	H
And slowly she came nye him	F
And all she sayd when there she came	I
Yong man I think y'are dying	J
	-
He turnd his face unto her strait	K
With deadlye sorrow sighing	J
O lovely maid come pity mee	G
Ime on my death bed lying	J
	-
If on your death bed you doe lye	B
What needs the tale you are tellin	A
I cannot keep you from your death	L
Farewell sayd Barbara Allen	A
	-
He turnd his face unto the wall	M
As deadlye pangs he fell in	A
Adieu adieu adieu to you all	M
Adieu to Barbara Allen	A
	-
As she was walking ore the fields	N
She heard the bell a knellin	A
And every stroke did seem to saye	C
Unworthy Barbara Allen	A
	-
She turnd her bodye round about	O
And spied the corps a coming	J
Laye downe laye downe the corps she sayd	O
That I may look upon him	F
	-
With scornful eye she looked downe	A
Her cheeke with laughter swellin	A
That all her friends cryd out amaine	A
Unworthye Barbara Allen	A
	-
When he was dead and laid in grave	P
Her harte was struck with sorrowe	Q
O mother mother make my bed	O
For I shall dye to morrowe	Q
	-
Hard harted creature him to slight	O
Who loved me so dearlye	C
O that I had beene more kind to him	F
When he was live and neare me	G
	-
She on her death bed as she laye	C
Beg'd to be buried by him	F
And sore repented of the daye	C
That she did ere denye him	F
	-
Farewell she sayd ye virgins all	M
And shun the fault I fell in	A
Henceforth take warning by the fall	M
Of cruel Barbara Allen	A
