The Mistletoe Bough
Thomas
Haynes Bayley (1884)
The mistletoe
hung in the castle hall
The
holly branch shone on the old oak wall.
The
Baron's retainers were blithe and gay,
Keeping
the Christmas holiday.
The Baron
beheld with a father's pride
His
beautiful child, Lord Lovell's bride.
And
she, with her bright eyes seemed to be
The
star of that goodly company.
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
"I'm
weary of dancing, now," she cried;
"Here,
tarry a moment, I'll hide, I'll hide,
And,
Lovell, be sure you're the first to trace
The
clue to my secret hiding place."
Away
she ran, and her friends began
Each
tower to search and each nook to scan.
And
young Lovell cried, "Oh, where do you hide?
I'm
lonesome without you, my own fair bride."
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
They
sought her that night, they sought her next day,
They
sought her in vain when a week passed away.
In the
highest, the lowest, the loneliest spot,
Young
Lovell sought wildly, but found her not.
The years
passed by and their brief at last
Was
told as a sorrowful tale long past.
When
Lovell appeared, all the children cried,
"See
the old man weeps for his fairy bride."
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
At length,
an old chest that had long laid hid
Was
found in the castle; they raised the lid.
A skeleton
form lay mouldering there
In the
bridal wreath of that lady fair.
How sad
the day when in sportive jest
She
hid from her lord in the old oak chest,
It closed
with a spring and a dreadful doom,
And
the bride lay clasped in a living tomb.
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
Oh,
the mistletoe bough.
