Mr Fox
Mr Fox

I'll tell you tale of Mr. Fox, how he came courting me,nHe was the smartest fellow you could ever hope to see.nNow Foxy came to our town in the springtime of the year,nAnd he said I was the fairest of any young girl here.nnMy Dad said I should marry him, that I should be his bride,nAnd I saw me walking up the aisle with Foxy by my side,nBut Foxy was a bit too sly, and I didn't trust his smile,nSo I told him change the wedding day and put it by awhile.nnThis didn't suit old Mr. Fox, he said I'd rue the day,nHe pulled his hat down over his eyes and went upon his way,nBut unbeknown to Foxy, I'd followed through the wood,nTill I came across the clearing where his fine old mansion stood.nnI hadn't been there but a while, when I heard a scream and shout,nIt was Foxy with a woman a-knocking her about.nI hadn't been there but a while when I heard a curse and swear,nIt was Foxy with a woman, held fast by her hair.nnHe dragged her through the bushes, he dragged her through the trees,nIt tore my heart in two to see her pleading on her knees.nHe dragged her up the marble steps, he dragged her through the hall,nI followed close behind them and hid against the wall.nnAs they were going up the stairs, the woman gave a wail,nShe tore away from Fox and clasped her hand around the rail.nFoxy took his knife with a blow both sharp and sweet,nThe hand was severed from the wrist and dropped down at my feet.nnThe night was black, the night was cold, no pathway could I find,nBut I ran through the trees as if the Devil was behind.nThe forest it was dark and thick and pricked with many a thorn,nBut I ran through the trees as if I'd never see the dawn.nnThe very next day old Foxy came to see if we'd be wed.nI told that I'd had a dream as I lay in my bed,nI told him that I'd seen a house in the middle of the wood,nAnd anyone who went inside, could never come to good.nnOld Foxy turned his back on me, he turned as if to leave,nBut I took him by the arm and plucked the hand from out my sleeve.nFoxy gave a yelp and then he gave a squeal,nAnd he ran as if the hounds of hell were crying at his heel.nnIn the middle of the forest where the lark and linnet sing,nThe dogs of the town got Fox inside a ring,nThey tore him limb from limb, they tore him hair from hair,nAnd his flesh it was eaten by the birds of the air.
