****** Tragische Geschichte, die der von Romeo und Julia durchaus ähnelt. Jeannie soll ihren geliebten Annachie verlassen um einen reichen Mann zu heiraten, der Ländereien besitzt und ihr Wohlstand bieten kann! Als sie ihr Vater dazu zwingt, nimmt sie sich das Leben.
"The day that Jeannie married was the day that Jeannie died And the day that young Annachie came home on the tide Saying oh it's been so long, you've been so long on the sands So long on the sands, so long on the flood They have married your Jeannie and now she lies dead. -You who are her maidens come take me by the hand And lead me to the chamber where my love she lies in And he kissed her cold lips till his heart it turned to stone And he died in the chamber where his love she lies in." |
