about

When he was 8 years old Coleridge ran away from home following an argument with his older brother Frank in which Coleridge lunged at him with a knife. He fled and hid at the bottom of a hill by the river Otter, reading prayers from a shilling book, hiding beneath a thorn bush and watching the calves in the field. The town crier was called in to rally the search party. In later years Coleridge confessed to thinking with inward and gloomy satisfaction how miserable it must have made his Mother.

lyrics

On a hill in the valley where the Otter flows
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)
A chill and child and calf doth low
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)

Where only a torrid thorn warms my bones
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)
And the prayers of a shilling book make my moan
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)

All for to cause to grieve Mother I escape thee
Run from my brothers and deceive all of Ottery
Frozen and motionless Mother you will find me
All for to cause to grieve none of you will bind me

You call on the crier for to call me home
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)
And the blade of a rotting tale sealed unknown
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)

On a hill in the valley where the river flows
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)
A chill and child and calf doth low
(All for to cause to grieve
Mother you will rue me)

All for to cause to grieve Mother I escape thee.
Run from my brothers and deceive all of Ottery
Frozen and motionless Mother you will find me
All for to cause to grieve none of you will bind me.
