  1. the glad tidings she fain would hear!
Chorus
  1. Gone, gone is every hope I had that the children yet might live; forth to their doom they now proceed. The hapless bride will take, ay, take the golden crown that is to
    be her ruin;
  2. with her own hand will she lift and place upon her golden locks the garniture of death.
