“I did not find Liverpool ugly. Her stately public buildings, broad streets, public squares, and noble statues redeem her from the charge.”

“Its whether will ye be a rank robber’s wife,
Or will ye die by my wee pen knife?

Its I’ll not be a rank robber’s wife,
But I’ll rather die by your wee pen knife.

He ‘s killed this may and he ‘s laid her by,
For to bear the red rose company.”
