to us wherever you go. I never heard such shocking words. But now, you must set out and take no notice of any one you meet, for you must be off to woo a wife; and see if you can get some one who knows more of the ways of the world, and has a better head on her shoulders than yours. And now you must behave like other folk; 
and if all goes well, you may bless your stars, and bawl out, Hurrah!"
Yes, the lad did all that his mother bade him. He set off and wooed a lass, and she thought he couldn't be so bad a fellow after all; and so she said, "Yes, she would have him."
When the lad got home the goody wanted to know what his sweetheart's name was; but he did not know. So the goody got angry, and said he must just set off again, for she would know what the girl's name was. So when Matt was going home again he had sense enough to ask her what she was called. "Well," she said, "my name is Solvy; but I thought you knew it already."
So Matt ran off home, and as he went he mumbled to himself
"Solvy, Solvy,
Is my darling!
Solvy, Solvy,
Is my darling!"
