"Along the North Atlantic Seaboard the years immediately proceeding the Union of the British Provinces in North America, in 1867, were bedecked with spacious days. The shipyards of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick were busy turning out the windships for which they were famous, and the Civil War in the United States was having golden repercussions in the Maritime Provinces.

First stanza reads 'There was a young squire in the north country we hear Was courting a nobleman's daughter so dear Now for to marry her it was his intent All friends and relations did give their consent. The time was appointed for the wedding-day The farmer was sorry to give her away; Instead of being married she went to her bed And the thoughts of the farmer still ran in her head.' The lady puts on 'A coat and blue trousers' and goes 'a-hunting with her dog and her gun'. She converses with the farmer who unaware of her true identity declares his love for her. She gives the farmer a glove full of gold goes home and declares that she has lost her glove and will marry the man who finds it.
