She smiled at me as I came in, as I stood there in my muddy shoes. I loved her so my poor heart cracked to tell her what I told. Her smile froze, her mouth went slack and my grief oppressed me doublefold. I said "I'm not the master of my fate that I would wish to be. I'm leaving now, I can't be late. They ship out tonight and they're taking me." "Our mission's still a mystery. I'm just one of many men who must leave their home and family and who might not pass this way again." She said "I will join your company. I'm not afraid or weak. I will bind my breasts and crop my hair, and I'll speak low just like a boy would speak." "You cannot come with me my love, they don't take volunteers. But there's one thing to you I swear though I may be gone for years." "I swear no shirt shall ever touch my skin nor comb go through my hair, but I'll think of the bed you're in and wish that I were lying with you there."
