One step aside--only one step--and my arm will be around thee.

A new life of love and home will lie before us.

I shall take thee, safely concealed, to the hostel where I and my men now lodge.

There, horses will stand ready, and we shall ride at once to Warwick.

At Warwick we shall find a priest--one in high favour, both in Church and State--who knows all, and is prepared to wed us without delay.
