THE WREATH. WELCOME SUMMER BACK THE DAINTY BIT THE AGAIN. PLAN. BACHELOR. GLASGOW; PRINTED FOR THE BOOKSELLERS. 25. �SONGS. THE CONSTANT SHEPHERD. My Patie is a lover gay, His mind is never muddy ; His breath is sweeter than new hay, His face is fair and ruddy: His shape is handsome, middle size, He's comely in his wauking; The shining o' his een surprise; It's heaven to hear him tanking. Yestreen I met him on a bawk, Where yellow corn was growing, Where mony a kindly word he spak, That set my heart a-glowing. He kiss'd and vow'd he wad bo mine, And lo'ed me best o' ony ; That gars me like to sing sinsyne, 0 corn riggs are bonny. Let lasses o' a silly mind Refuse what maist they're wanting, Since we for yielding were design'd, We chastely should be granting* Then I'll comply and marry Pate: And syne my cockernony He's free to touzle ear' or late While corn riggs are bonny. �3 THE W R E A T H . Ye shepherds tell me, tell mo, have you seen, Have you seen my Flora pass this way, in shape and feature beauty's queen, In pastoral, in pastoral array. Chorus. Shepherds tell me, tell me, tell me have you seen, Have you seen my Flora pass this way, Have you seen, tell me, shepherds, have you seen, Tell me have you seen my Flora pass this way. A wreath around her head, around her head she wort Carnation, lily, lily, rose, And in her hand a crook she bore, And sweets, and sweets her breath compose. Shepherds tell me, &c. The beauteous, the beauteous wreath that decks her head, . Forms her description, her description true, Hands lily white, lips crimson red, And cheeks, and cheeks of rosy hue. Shepherds tell me, &c. WELCOME S U M M E R B A C K AGAIN. In Flora's train the graces wait, And chase rude winter from the plain ; As on she roves, the wild flowers spring, And welcome summer back again. �4 Spring dances o'er the plain, Flowering all the woodland scene, Then join with me, my lovely May, To welcome summer back again, The budding wild will soon perfume The air, when balm'd by April's rain; 'Mong banks clad o'er wi* waving broom, We'll welcome summer back again. In yon sequester'd scene, The mavis sings his cheerful strain, And there we'll meet, my lovely May, To welcome summer back again. When yellow cowslips soent the meadv Then gladness o'er the plains will reign ; And soon, my love, we'll pu' the flowers, And welcome summer back again. Spring dances o'er the plain, Flowering all the woodland scene, With blooming garlands in her train, To wekome summer back again. THE DAINTY BIT PLAN. Our May had an e'e to a man, Nae less than the newly-placed Preacher: And we plotted.a dainty bit-plan For trapping our spiritual teacher, O, we were sly, sly! 0 , we were sly and sleekit! But ne'er say a herring is dry until it be reestit and smeekit. �We treated young Mr M'Gock, We plied him wi' tea and wi' toddy ; And we praised every, word that he spoke, Till we put him maist out o' the body. 0 , we were sly, sly! &c. Frae the kirk we were never awa', Except when frae hame he was helping ; And then May, and often us a', Gaed far and near after him skelping. 0 , we were sly, sly! &c. We said aye, which our neighbours thought droll, That to hear him gang through wi' a sermon, Was, (though a wee dry on the whole,) As refreshing's the dew 011 Mount Hermon. O, we were sly, sly! &c. But to come to the heart 0' the nit— The dainty bit plan that we plotted Was to get a subscription afi-t, And a watch to the minister voted. 0 , we "were sly, sly! &c. The young women folk 0' the kirk, By turns lent a hand in collecting; But May took the feck o' the wark, And the trouble the rest 0' directing. 0 , we were sly, sly! &c. A gran' watch was gotten belyve, And May wi* sma' prigging, consentit To be ane 0' a party 0' five To gang to the Manse and present it. 0 , we were sly, sly! &c. �6 We a' gied a word o' advice To May in a deep consultation, To hae something to say unca nice, And to speak for the hale deputation. 0 , we were sly, sly! &c. Taking present and speech baith in hand, May delivered a bonny palaver To let Mr M'Gock understand How zealous she was in his favour. 0 , we were sly, sly! &c. She said that the gift was to prove, That his female friends valued him highly, But it eouldna express a' their love; And she glintit her e'e at him slyly. 0 , we were sly, sly ! &c. He put the gold watch in his fab, And proudly he said he wad wear i t ; And, after some flattering gab, Tauld May he was gaun to be marryit. 0 , we were sly, sly! 0 , were sly and sleekit! But Mr M'Gock was nae gowk, wi' our dainty bit plar to be cleekit. May came liame wi' her heart at her mouth, And became, frae that hour, a Dissenter, And now she's renewing her youth Wi* some hopes o' the burgher Precentor. 0 , but she's sly, sly! O, but she's sly and sleekit! And cleverly opens ae door as soon as anither is steekit. �7 THE BACHELOR. My master was an auld Batch, Baitli crabbed and uncivil: Than kiss a lass, (except when f o u ) He'd sooner kiss the d 1. An' he had gowd and sil'er baith, As meikle's fill a barrel; A gaudy house, an' grand estate, Might serve a duke or earl. But woman's ways he coudna thole— The cause o' a disasters ; He'd sneer, an' jeer, an' curse the sex. And ca' them downright wasters. But then, again, when he was fu', His love was overbearing; He'd kiss an' slake about my mou', Nae wife nor sil'er fearing. As I was growing auld mysel', And lovers growing scanty, I thought upon my master's house, His gear an' sil'er plenty. So I got witnesses ae night, When he was reeling rarely, To hear his tender promises, An' see us bedded fairly. He sought me to his chamber ha', And troth, I didna swither ; But gave a sweet complying smile, An' alf to bed thegither. But oh! that morn when he awoke ! Ere he could weel consider, �8 He drew his arms frae 'bout my neck, As if he'd touch'd an adder! " Weel, B e t ! " says he, what brings you here My troth, biit you re a trimmer! Gae, rise, an' mend the kitchen fire, You lewd lascivious liramer ! " " Na, na, gudeman ! do that yoursel'— I'll rise when I am ready ; I was your servant yesterday, But now I am your l a d y ! " But wha could paint his waspish face, As I the fatfts were tilling! His miser-moans, his sii'er-shrinks, Were like a cuddy's yelling! W i ' rage, he fell upon the floor, And gi'ed a mar like thun'er; But matrimony's chains are strong— There's few they'll not keep un'er. Now since his single woes are past, An' lie has got a baby, His looks liae quite anither cast, His dress is never shabby. A n ' aye he blesses Bet his wife, The night she nail'd him till her, An' wadna be a Batch again For a' his Ian' an' sil'er.

THE KING AND WEST COUNTRYMAN. THE BUNDLE OF WANTS. GLASGOW: PRINTED FOR THE BOOKSELLERS. 24. �SONGS. THE JUBILEE. Frae the Grampian hills will the Royal ear hear it. An' listen to Norman the Shepherd's plain tale, The north wind is blawing, and gently will bear it Unvarnish'd and honest, o'er hill and o'er dale ; When London it reaches, at court sure receive it. Like a tale you may read it, or like a sang sing, Poor Norman is easy, but you may believe it, I m fifty years Shepherd, you're fifty a King. Your Jubilee now wi' my ain I will mingle, For you and mysel' twa fat lambkins I'll slay ; Fresh turf I will lay in a heap on my ingle, An wi' my auld neebors I'll rant out the day. My pipes that I play'd on lang syne, I will blaw them. The chanter I'll teach to lilt over each spring, My drones to the tune I'll round an' round thraw them, I'm fifty years Shepherd, you're fifty a King. The flocks o' Great Britain ye've lang weel attended, The flocks o' Great Britain demanded your care, f r a e the tod an' the wolf they've been snugly defended, And let to fresh pastures, fresh water and air ; �3 My flocks I have led day by day o'er the heather, A t night they around me ha'e danc'd in a ring, I've been their protector thro' foul and fair weather, I m fifty years Shepherd, you're fifty a King. Their fleeces I've shorn, frae the cauld to protect me, Their fleeces they gave when a burden they grew ; When leas'd frae the sheeting their looks did respect me, So the flocks o' Great Britain still look upon y o u ; They grudge not their monarch a mite o' their riches, Their active industry is ay on the w i n g ; Then you and me, Sire, I think are twa matches, I'm fifty years Shepherd, you're fifty a King. Me wi' my sheep, Sire, and you wi' your subjects, On that festive day we'll both gladly rejoice ; Our twa hoary heads will be fu' o' new projects, To please the leal vassals that made us their choice ! W i ' sweet rips o' hay I will treat a' my wethers, The juice o' the vine to your lords you will bring, The respect they ha'e for us is better than brother's, I'm fifty years Shepherd, you're fifty a K i n g . My crook I will dress in the relics o' summer, My faithfu' auld Colly shall hail that blithe morn, And to my wee cabin I'll welcome each comer, The friend that hath plenty, and stranger forlorn ; You'll sure do the same tho' nobody broach it, You've plenty of beef, butter, lobsters, and ling, And rowth o' Musicians to strike up the crotchet, I'm fifty years Shepherd, you're fifty a King. �4 I live i' the cottage where Norval was bred in, You live in the palace your ancestors rear'd, Nae guests uninvited dare come to our weddin', Nor ruthless invader pluck us by the beard; Then thanks to the island we live in, where shipping Skim round us abreast, or like geese in a string, Then safe I can say, as my brose I am sipping, I'm fifty years Shepherd, you're fifty a King, But a h ! Royal George, and a h ! humble Norman, Life to us baith draws near to a close ; The year's far awa that was our natal hour, man, The time's at our elbow that brings us repose ; But e'en let it come, sirs, if conscience acquit us, A sigh frae our bosom death never shall wring, An' may the next Jubilee, amang angels meet us, So hail the auld Shepherd, and worthy auld King. B U N D L E OF W A N T S . Come, Gentlemen, sit you all merry, I'll sing you a song of w a n t ; I'll make you as merry as can be, Now my money begins to grow scant. A woman without ever a tongue, She never can scold very loud ; It's just Such another sad want, When a fiddler wants his crowd. �5 A ship without ever a sail, May be driven the Lord knows whither, It's just such another sad want, As a shoemaker wanting his leather. A man that has got but one leg, Will make but a very bad runner; And he that's no eyes in his head, Will make but a sorrowful gunner. A bell without ever a clapper, Will make but a sorrowful sound; And he that's no land of his own, Must work on another man's ground. A woman without e'er a fault, She bright as a star will appear; But a brewer without any malt, Will brew us but pitiful beer. A soldier without any pay, To fight will be terrible l a z y ; And a bed well stocked with fleas, Will make a man wonderful busy. A miller without a pair of stones, He is but a sorrowful soul; And if he has no corn to grind, He need not stand taking toll. �6 A man that has got a bad stomach, Will make but a pitiful dinner; And he that's no victuals to eat, His jaws will grow thinner and thinner. You know that a dish of good meat Is the comfort and joy of man's life; But he that's no victuals to eat, Has no need to draw out his knife. A ploughman without e'er a plough, I think he may live at his ease; And a dairy without e'er a cow, Will make but bad butter and cheese. A man that is pitiful poor, Has little or nothing to lose; And he that has got ne'er a foot, It saves him the buying of shoes. A woman that never bore children, Is barren, and so much the worse; And he that is quite out of money, Can have no need of a purse. I hope there's no one in this place, Displeas'd any way with my song; Come, buy up my ballads apace, And I'll pack up my awls, and begone. �7 THE KING AND WEST COUNTRYMAN. There was an old chap in the west country, A flaw in his lease the lawyers had found; It were all about a-felling some oak trees, And building some houses upon his own ground. Ri tooral, &c. Now this old chap to Lunnun did go, To tell the K i n g a part of his woe, likewise to tell him a part of his grief, In hopes K i n g George would give him relief. R i tooral, &c. Now this old chap to Lunnun did go, But found the K i n g to Windsor had gone; But if he had known he'd not been at home, He domm'd his buttons if ever he'd come. Ri tooral, &c. Now this old chap to Windsor did go, But the gates were barred, and all secure; He bumped and thumped with his oaken clump. There's room within for I, to be sure. R i tooral, &c. Pray, Mr Noble, shew I the K i n g — What's that the K i n g that I see there ? I seed a chap at Bartlemy Fair, Much liker a K i n g than that chap there. Ri tooral, &c. �8 Pray, Mr. King, how do you do ? I'ze gotten for yon a bit on a jobb'n, And if you're so kind, to make you amends, I'ze gotten a summat in my fobb'n. R i tooral, &c. The K i n g he took the lease in hand, And to sign it he was likewise willing; And the farmer, to make him a little amends He lugged out his bag, and gi'd him a shilling. Ri tooral, &c. The King, to carry on the joke, He ordered ten pounds to be paid down, For year and year after, and evermore, Likewise ten shillings and half-a-crown Ri tooral, &c. The farmer he stared, and looked very funny, To take up the cash he was likewise willing; But if he had known he'd so much money, He domm'd his wig if he'd gave him the shilling.
