letra de mary ashford - bonfire radicals
mary ashford’s grim ghost proclaims a sad tale
“i’m ravished and murdered” she cries
it can’t be denied, though others have tried
yet while true friends weep must justice still sleep?
must my course then be never more tried?
i was a young woman, hard-working and strong
went blithely with health to a dance
while a villain stood by and on me cast an eye
resolved to try to debauch me or die
with flattery and smiles did advance
to the fields then with him i with innocence went
where his flattery did all prove in vain
while the moon herself shrouds behind the black clouds
and the screech owl did scream a most ominous theme
but i left him to go home again
my path it lay near to an old blasted oak
from whence seemed to issue a groan
when from near the tree, the villain sees me
i struggled with screams, cold sweat ran in streams
and i made the fields ring with my moan
[instrumental]
he affected his will while unconscious i lay
but i rose from the ground
i vowed that he should hang from a tree
for ravishing me to no bribe would agree
so he threw me right into the pond
i breathed cold water instead of sweet air
’til my soul from my body did part
now by heaven i’m urged, ’til my sins are all purged
to hover beside the pond where i died
then to glory flew with a pure heart
oh banish the wretch if the laws won’t revenge
and him from society spurn
may remorse gnaw his soul, and his time quickly roll
to without a reprieve, h-ll doth him receive
and no human breast for him to mourn
two hundred years on and my story repeats
another was k!lled late one night
two women died here, our hearts filled with fear
now together we stand on this ill-fated land
to guide you with our heavy light
