Lover, "Give Me My Arrows And Give Me My Bow" (Sheet music).

And death parts you soon from your treasure so bright—
136:
While there's life on the hill in the health-breathing wind?

The lake gives me
Whitefish ; — the deer gives me meat,

110:I have got treasure more precious than thine;

112:Freedom in forest, and health in the chase,
