This is how I learned it from a Time-Life Album in about 1958. There's a little rosewood casket Lying on a marble stand And a packet of old love letters Written by my true love's hand [Go and bring them to me sister Read them o'er for me tonight I have often tried but I could not For the tears that filled my eyes] I did not know this verse--Thanks! Last Sunday I saw him walkin' With a lady by his side, And I thought I heard him tell her He would never be his bride. When I'm dead and in my coffin And my shroud's around me bound And my narrow grave is ready In some lonely churchyard ground. Take his letters and his locket Place together o'are my heart But the golden ring he gave me From my finger never part
