SynopsisA lady laments that her love had left her. He, still there, comes to comfort her but tells her that he is sworn to leave. She gives him a ring: while he wears it, he will shed no blood, but if he sees the stone fade, he will know she is dead. He has not been gone more than months when the stone fades. He gives all his goods as alms, and dies. MotifsThe magic ring is found also in the ballad "Hind Horn".[2] References1. ^Francis James Child, English and Scottish Popular Ballads, "Bonny Bee Hom" {{Francis James Child}}{{Folk-song-stub}}2. ^Francis James Child, The English and Scottish Popular Ballads, v 2, p 317, Dover Publications, New York 1965 1 : Child Ballads |
