COMPOSED BY H E R

HUSBAND.

Some men they do delight in hound?
And some in hawks take pleasure,
Some do rejoice in war and wounds,
And thereby goiri great treasure.
Some men do love on sea to sail;
And some rejoice in riding;
Bat all their judgments do them fail—
O! no such joy as chiding.
When in the morn I ope my eyes,
T o entertain the day,
Before my husband e'en can rise,
I chide him—then I pray.
When I at table take my place,
Whatever be the meat,
I first do chide—and then say grace,
If so dispo&amp;'d to eaU
Too fat, too lean, too hot, too cold,
I ever do complain.
Too raw, too roast, too young too old
Faults I will And or feign.

�4
Let it be flesh, or fowl or fish,
It never shall be said,
But I'll fi,nd fault with meat or dish,
With master, or with maid.
But when I go to bed at night,
I heartily do weep,
That I must part with my delight—
1 cannot scold and sleep.
However this doth mitigate,
And much abate my sorrow,
That though to-night it be too late,
I'll early scold to-morrow.
T H E H I G H L A N D LAD-DIE.
The Lawland lads think they are tine,
But O! they're vain and idly gaudy;
How much unlike the g r a c e d mein,
And manly looks of my Highland laddre.
O my bonny Highland laddie;
My handsome, charming Highland laddie,
May heaven still guard, and love reward,
The Lawland lass and her Highland laddie.
If I were free at will to choose
T o be the wealthiest Lawland lady,

�I'd tak young Donald without trews,
With bonnet blue and belted plaidw.
0 my boniiie, fyc.
Tlie brawest beau in burrows town,
In a' his airs with art made ready,
Compared to him, he's but a clown,
He's finer far in's tartan plaidie.
O my bonnicy fye.
O'er benty hills with him I'll run,
And leave my Lawland kin and daddit;
Frae winter's cauld, and simmer's sun,
He'll screen me with his Highland plakfce.
O my bonnicy Sfc.
A painted room, and silken bed,
May please a Lawiand laird and lady;
But I can kiss, and be as glad,
Behind a bush, in's Highland plaidie.
O my bonnie,
F*w compliments between us pass,
l e a ' him my dear Highland laddie;
And he ca'sme his Lawhind lass,
Syne rows me in beneath his plaidie.
0 my bo7uiie9 tyc.
Xac greater joy I'll e'er pretend,
Than that his love proves true and steady

�6
Like mine to him, which ne'er rhall end,
While Heav'n preserves ray Highland laddie.
0 my bonnie, fyc.

B I L L Y AND N A N C Y ' S

PARTING.

I T was on a Monday morning,
just at the break of day,
Our ship she slipt her cable
and we were bound to sea:
The wind blew from the south-east,
and from Greenock we were boond,
The streets they were all garnished,
with pretty maids all round.
There was a pretty sailor
all in his blooming years,
H e came unto his true love,
with bitter sighs and tears;
And he came unto his true love,
to let her understand,
That he was going to leave her
into some foreign land.
Why say you so dear Billy?
these words do break my heart,
Come let us now be married,
before that we do part:

�7
These fourteen weeks nni longer.
I'm going with child to the*,
So stay at home dear Billy,
be kind and marry me.
If I should stay at home, my dear,
another would take my place,
It would be a shame to mc, love,
besides a sad disgrace:
The King he's wanting men, my dear,
and I for one must go,
And for my very life, love,
I must not answer no.
Well, I'll cut off my yellow hair,
man's clothes I will put on,
And I will go along with you,
to be your waiting man:
Like a true and faithful servant,
I on my love will wait,
No storm nor danger will I fear,
let it be e'er so great.
Your waist it is too slender,
your fingers are too small,
I fear you will not answer me,
when I do on you call,
W4ien cannons they do rattle,
and bullets tbey do fly,
And silver trumpets sounding,
to drown the dreadful «ry.

�8
If I should meat a bonny lass,
that's merry, blythe and gay,
And on her set my fancy,
what would my Nancy say?
What would I say dear Willy,
but I would love her too,
It's I would step aside, my dear,
till she would pleasure you.
Why, say you so, de-ar Nancy!
you now do gain my heart;
Come, let us now be married,
'before thpt we do part.
This o u p l e now are married,
and sailing o'er the main,
All goodness may att?nd them,
till they return again.
T O G E T H E R L E T US RANGE,
Together let U9 range the fields,
Impearl'd with the morning dew,
Or view the fruit the vineyard yields,
Or the apples clustering bough.
There in close embowered shades,
Impervious to the noontide ray,
By tinkling rills—or rosy beds,
We'll love the sultry hours away.
FINIS.
