loed

Updated: May 16, 2025

I had been singing 'All Tears, when an old woman said in her feeble, trembling voice, 'Ye mun loe us, young leddy, to come to sic a place an' sing o' Him wha sa loed the warld that He sent His only begotten Son ta it, for it's only great loe that casts out fear, and this is a fearsome spot. Since then I haven't hated anything, except wanton cruelty, and I know love rules when it is fearless, but that is very seldom.
