== Synopsis ==
Most often set to the tune of "The Lady's Fall" or "The Ladies' Fall," ''The Bride's Burial'' follows a husband's mourning for his recently deceased wife. He recounts their marriage, in which immediately after the vows, his wife is struck with a "griping Grief, like Pangs of Death", and upon return home announces her own death where she discards her marriage clothes for a winding sheet, or death shroud. She pleads with her new-husband to remember her in love and pray with her, as she expires. The ballad ends with a burial recognizing the Bride's virginity, and asks the reader to remember the frailty of life and love.
The ballad is most often assembled in octaves with various rhyme schemes.
