1/19/1673: death of Agnes Smith:
No kind o' vice e'er stained my life,
Nor hurt my virgin honor;
My youthful heart was won by love,
But death will me exoner.
"O mother dear, now make my bed,
An' lay my face to Fyvie;
Thus will I lie, an' thus will die
For my dear Andrew Lammie."
"Tifty's Annie" (The Mill o' Tiftie was a farm just north of Fyvie Castle) Child #233, Gaughan, Greig
