How King Henry V I I I , used to visit the watches in the city, and how he became acquainted with a merry jovial Cobbler. IT was the custom of King Henry the Eight, to walk late in the night into the city disguised, to observe and take notice how the constables and watch performed their duty, not only in guarding the city gates, but also in diligently watching th,e inner parts of the city, that so they might, in a great measure, prevent those disturbances and casualties which too often happen in great and populous cities in the night; and this he did oftentimes, without the least discovery who he was, returning home to Whitehall early in the morningNow, on his return home through the Strand, be took notice of a certain cobbler who was constantly up at work, whistling and singing every �4 morning. The king was resolved to see him, and he acquainted with him, in order to which he immediately knocks the heel of his shoe by hitting it against a stone, and having so done, he bounced at the cobbler's stall. Who's there ? cries the cobbler. Here's one, cries the king. With that the cobbler opened the stall door, and the king asked him if he could put the heel on his shoe. Yes, that I can, says the cobbler: come in, honest fellow, and sit thee down by me, and I will do it for thee straight, the cobbler scraping his awls and old shoes to one side to make room for the king to sit down. The king being hardly able to forbear laughing at the kindness of the cobbler, asked him if there was not a house hard by that sold a cup of ale, and the people up ? Yes said the cobbler, there is an inn over the way, where I believe the folks are up, for the carriers go from thence very early in the morning With that the king borrowed an old shoe of the cobbler, and went over to the inn, desired the �5 cobbler would bring his shoe to him thither as soon as he had put on the heel again. The cobbler promised he would; so making what haste he could to put on the heel, he carries it over to the king, saying, honest blade, here is thy shoe again, and I warrant thee it will not come off in such haste again. Very well, says the king, what must you have for your pains ? A couple of pence, replied the cobbler. Well, said the king, seeing thou art an honest merry fellow, there is a tester for thee; come, sit down by me, I will drink a full pot with thee; come, here's a good health to the king. With all my heart, said the cobbler, I'll pledge thee were it in water. So the cobbler sat down by the king and was very merry, and drank off his liquor very freely; he likewise sung some of his merry songs and catches, whereat the king laughed heartily, and was very jocund and pleasant with the cobbler, telling him withal that his name was Harry Tudor, that he belonged to the court, and that if he �6 would come and see him there, he would make him very welcome, because he was a merry companion, and charged him not to forget his name, and to ask auy one for him about the court, and they would soon bring him to him; for, said the sing, I am very well known there. Now the cobbler little dreamt that he was the king that spake to him, much less that the king's name was Harry Tudor. Therefore, with a great deal of confidence, he stands up and puts off his hat, m&kes two or three scrapes with his foot, and gives the king many thanks, also telling him that he was one of the most honest fellows he ever met with in all his life time, and although he never had been at court, yet he should not be long before he would make a holy day to come and see him. Whereupon the king, paying for what they had drunk, would have taken his leave of the cobble? j but he, not being willing to part with him, took hold of his hand, and said, by my faith you must not go, you shall not go, you shall first go and see my poor habitation, I have there a tub of good brown ale that was never tapped yet, and you must go and taste it, for you are the most honest blade I ever met withal, and I �7 an honest merry companion with all my heart. C H A P . II. How the Cobbler entertained the King in las cellar, and of the disturbance they had like to hare had by his wife Joan. So the cobbler took the king with him over the way, where he had his cellar adjoining the stall, which was handsomely and neatly furnished for a man of his profession. Into the cellar he took the k i n g ; there, said he, sit down, you are welcome; but I must desire you to speak softly, for fear of waking my wife Joan, who lies hard by, (shewing the king a close bed. made neatly tij> at one corner of the cellar, much like a closet,) for if she should wake she will make our ears ring again. A t which speech of the cobbler's the king laughed, and told him he would be mindful and follow Ms directions. Whereupon the cobbler kindled up a fire, and �8 fetched out a brown loaf, from which, he cut a lusty toast, which he sat baking at the fire; then, he brought out his Chesire cheese. Now, says he, there is as much fellowship in eating as in drinking. Which made the king admire the honest freedom of the cobbler. So having eaten a bit the cobbler began. A health to all true hearts and merry companions; at which the king smiled, saying, friend I'll pledge thee. In this manner they ate and drank together till it was almost break of day ; the cobbler being very free with his liquor, and delighting the king with several of his old stories, insomuch that he was highly pleased with the manner of his entertainment; when, 011 a sudden, the cobblers wife Joan began to awake. I'faith, says the cobbler, you must begone, my wife Joan begings to grumble, she'll awake presently, and I would not for half the shoes in my shop she should find you here. Then taking the king by the hand, he led him up the stairs, saying, farewell honest friend, it shan't be long before I make a holyday to come and see thee at court. �9 Thou shalt be kindly welcome, replied the king, So they parted the king on his way to Whitehall, and the cobbler to his cellar, and there putting all things to rights before bis wife Joan got up, he went to work again, whistling and singing as merry as he used to be, being much satisfied that he happened on so good and jovial a companion, still pleasing himself in his thoughts how merry he should be when he came to court. C H A P . III. How the Cobbler prepared himself to go to court, and how he was set out in the best manner by his wife Joan. Now as soon as the king came home, he sent out orders about the court, that if any one enquired for him by the name of Harry Tudor, they should immediately bring him before him, whatever he was, without any further examination. The cobbler thought every day a month till �10 he had been at court to see his new acfqudhitkiiee, and was troubled how he should get leave of H& i wife Joan, for he could not get without her knowledge, by reason he did respite to make himself as fine as he could, for his wife always keeped the keys of his holyday clothes; whereupon one evening, as they sat at supper finding her iii a very good humour, he N egan to lay open his mind to her, telling her the whol£ story of their acquaintance, repeating it ovefr and Over Again, that he was the most honest fellow that ever he met withal. Husband, quoth she, because you have been so ingenious to tell me the whole truth, I will give you leave to make a holyday, for this once you shall g6 tb court, and I will make you as fine as I can. fefr it M s agreed that he should go to court the next day; whereupon Joan rose betime the next morning to brush up her husband's holyday clothes, and made him as fine as she could. She washed and ironed the lace-band, and made his shoes shine that he might see his face in them ; having done this she made her husband rise and pull of his shirtl Then she washed him with warm water from head to foot, putting on him a clean shirt; afterwards she dressed him in his holyday clothes, pinning his laced band in prim. �11 CHAP. IV. The Cobbler's reception at court, with the manner of his behaviour before the King. The Cobbler being thus set forth, he strutted through the street like crow in a gutter, thinking himself as fine as the best of them all. In this manner he came to the court, staring on this body and that body as he walked up and down, and not knowing how to ask for Harry Tudor. A t last he espied one, as he thought, in the habit of a servant-man, to whom he made his address, saying. Dost thou hear, honest fellow, do you know onfe Harry Tudor who belongs to the court. Yes, said the man, follow me, and I will bring you to him. With that he had him presently up into the guard chamber, telling one of the yeomen of the guard there was one that enquired for Harry Tudor. �12 The yeoman replied; I kwow liirn very well; If you please to go along with me9 Til bring you to him immediately, So the cobbler followed the yeoman, admiring very much the prodigious fmery of the rooms which he carried him through. He thought within himself, that the yeoman was mistaken in the person whom he inquired for; for, said he, he whom I look for is a plain, merry, honest fellow, his name is Harry Tudor; we drank two pots together not long since. I suppose he may belong to some lord or other about the court. I tell you, friend, replied the yoeman, I know him very well, do you but follow me, and I shall bring you to him instanly. So going forward, he came into the room where the king v,as accompanied by several of his nobles, who attended him. As soon as the yeoman had put up by the arras, he spoke aloud, may it please your Majesty, here is one that inquires for Harry Tudor. The cobbler hearing this, thought he had committed no less than treason ; therefore he up with �13 his heels and ran for i t : but not being acquaint ted with the several turning and rooms through which he came, lie was soon overtaken and brought before the king, whom the cobbler little thought to be the person he inquired alter, therefore in a trembling condition, he fell down on his knees, saying. May it please your Grace, may it please your Highness, I am a poor cobbler, who inquired for one Harry Tudor, who is a very honest fellow, I mended the heel of his shoe not long since, and for which he paid me nobly, and gave me two pots to boot: but I had him afterwards to my cellar, where we drank part of a cup of nappy ale, and were very merry, till my wife Joan began to grumble which put an end to our merriment, for that time, but I told him I would come to the court and see him, as soon as conveniently I could. Well, said the king, don't be troubled, would you know this honest fellow again, if you could see him. The cobbler replied, Yes, that I will among a thousand. Then said the king, s*.and up, and be not �14 afraid, but look well about you, peradventure you may find the fellow in this company. Whereupon the cobbler arose, and looked wishfully upon the king and the rest of the nobles, but it was to little or no purpose : for though he saw something in the king's face which he thought he had seen before, yet he could not be Harry Tudor, the lieel of whose shoe he had mended, and who had been so nlerry a companion with him at the inn, and at his own cellar. He therefore told the king he did not expect to find Harry Tudor among such fine folks as he saw there, but that the person he looked for was a plain honest fellow. Adding withal, that he was sure that did Harry Tudor but know he was come to court, he would make him very Weleome: for, says the cobbler, when we parted he charged me to come to court soon and see him, which I promised I would, and accordingly I have made a holy day ;6n purpose to have a glass with hifci. A t which speech of the cobbler's the king had much ado to forbear laughing out, but keeping his countenance as steady as he could before the cobbfer, he spoke to the yeoman of the guard. �15 Here, iaid he, take this honest cobbler down into toy Cellar, and let him drink my health: amj I will give orders that Harry Tudor shall come to him presently. JlKt 4' Mi'ih!hi /•*oftll£ if m i l w 5 f j ij.t d'iot So away they went, the cobbler being fit to leap out of his skin for joy, not only that he had come off so well, but that he should see his friend Harry Tudor. C H A P . V. The CbbblerY enter tainmetat in the K i n g s 'Cellar. The cobbler had not been long in the king's cellar, before the king camfc 46- him in the same habit that he had on when the cobbler mended hisfehoe; whereupon the cobbler knew him immediately, and ran and kissed him$ saying, honest Harrys I have made an holyday on purpose to see yoti, but I had much ado to get leave of my wife Jdari, who was loath to loose so much time from my work; but I was Resolved to see you, and therefore I made myself as fine as I^oUld. But I'll tell thee, Harry, when I came to court �16 I was in a peck of troubles how to find you out; but at last I met with a man who told me he knew you very well, and that he would bring me to you, but instead of doing so, he brought me before the king which almost frightened me out of my seven senses; but faith I'm resolved to be merry with you now, since I have met you al last. Aye, that we shall replied the king, we shall oo as merry as princes. Now after the cobbler had drunk about four or five good healths, he began to be merry, and fell a-singing his old songs and catches, which pleased the king very much, and made him laugh heartily. When on a sudden several ot the nobles came into the cellar, extraordinary rich in apparel, and all stood uncovered before Harry Tudor, which put the cobbler into a great amazement at first, but presently recovering himself, he looked more wishfully upon Harry Tudor, and soon knowing him to be the king, whom he saw in his presence chamber, though in another habit, he immediately fell upon his knees saying. May it please your Grace, may it please your �17 Highness, I am a poor honest cobbler and mean mo harm. No, no, said the king, nor shall receive any here, I assure you. He commanded him therefore to rise, and be as merry as he was before; and though he knew him to be the king, yet he should use the same freedom with him as he did before, when he mended the heel of his shoe. This kind speech of the kings and three or four glasses of wine, made the cobbler be in as good humour as before, telling the king several of his old stories and singing some of his best songs, very much to the satisfaction of the king m i all hh nobles. C O B B L E R ' S SONG IN T J i E KING'S CELLAR. Come let us drink the other pot, our sorrows to confound; �18 We'll laugh and sing before the King* so let his health go round; For I am as bold as bold can be, no cobbler e'er was ruder ; Then here good fellow here's to thee, (remembering Harry Tudor.) MP l i ' M < J f if.ml in<<,*> < l > When I'm at work within my stall, upon him I will think ; His kindness I to mind will cail, whene'er I eat or drink ; His kindness was to me so great, 'the like was never known, His kindness I shall still repeat, and so shall my wife Joan. yil laugh when I sit in my stall, and merrily will sing. That I with my poor last and awl, am fellow with the king. But it is more I must confess, than I at first did know, But Harry Tudor ne'ertheless, resolves it shall be so. And now farewell unto Whitehall, I homeward must retire, �19 T o sing and whistle in my stall, my Joan will me desire; I do but think how she shall laugh, when she hears of this thing* That h£ that drank her nut-brown ale, Was England's Royal King. CHAP. VI. How the Cobbler became a Courtier* Now the king considering the pleasant humour of the cobbler, how innocently merry he was, and free from any design; that he was a person that laboured very hard, and took a great deal of pains for a small livelihood, was pleased, out of his princely grac*7 and favour, to allow him a liberal annuity of fo'^y merks a year, for the better support of his jo-viy humour, and the maintenance of his wife Joai- and that he should be admitted one of hifc courtiers, and that he might have the freedom of his cellar whenever he pleased. Which being so much ! eyond expectation, did highly exalt the cobbler'^ humour, much to the satisfaction of the king. �20 So after a great many legs and scrapes, he returned home to his wife Joan, with the joyful news of his deception at court; which so well pleased her, that she did not think much at the great pains she took in decking him for the journey. * ANECDOTE. When Charles I I was on a progress through his dominions, lie was waited upon by the magistracy of a certain city in the north of England. The Mayor had prepared with 110 little study a splendid oration for so memorable an occasion. Kneeling down to deliver his address the worthy Magistrate (who was excessively fat) commenced by a feu dejoy of rather a singular nature: whether he deemed an expression of loyalty tantamount to a royal salute of the present day, history is silent: certain it is, lie felt greatly embarrassed, and blundered his oration most woefully. " 1 have, please your Majesty, begun at the wrong end/' cried the good Mayor, endeavouring to apologize for the incoherency of his speech. " So I remarked," replied the facetious monarch, but I fear the mistake can't now be corrected llise up, Sir Walter Cannon." �21 THE TWO BEARS. Two very intimate friends, one a painter, the other a goldsmith, travelling together, were benighted near a convent of religious christians* where they were entertained with great humanity. As those travellers wanted money to continue their journey, the painter, who was a proficient in his art, offered to work for the monastery. He soon possessed his hosts with a high opinion of his talents, and even inspired them with a confidence, which they had soon too much reason to repent. The monks having one night left the sacristy of their church open* the painter and his friend the goldsmith went in ; and,after taking out all the vessels of gold and silver which they found there, they ran away as fast as possible. Possessed of so great a booty, they determined to return to their own country. When they arrived there, fearing lest the robbery should be discovered, they put all their riches into a chest, and made an agreement that neither should take any out, without informing the other. Soon after the goldsmith married, and became the father of two children. T o supply his expences, which increased with his family, he appropriated the greatest part of the treasure iathe �22 chest to his own use. The painter'perceived his treachery, and reproached him with it. The other absolutely denied the fact. The painter, provoked at his perfidy, determined to punish him for it; but, to be more certain of his revenge, he pretended to believe every thing his associate swore. With this view he applied to a huntsman, a friend of his, to procure him two young bears alive. When he had them in his possession, he ordered a wooden statue to be made so much resembling the goldsmith in every respect j that the eye was deceived. After having thus prepared every thing necessary to his design, he accustomed the bears to eat out of the hands of the statue. He led them every morning into the room where he kept i t ; and, as soon as they saw it, they always ran and eat the victuals, which had been put in its hands. The painter employed many weeks in teaching them this exercise every day. As soon as he saw the two bears were perfect in their parts, he invited the goldsmith and his two children to Supper. Th& feast being prolonged till midnight, the goldsmith and his two children lay at their host's'. A t day-break the painter dexterously conveyed away the two children, and in their p|ace substituted the two bears. How much was the father, on waking, sun �23 prfeed to find them in his room instead of, hit children I He cried out most dreadfully* The painter ran to him, and appeared greatly astonished : " Perhaps," said he, " you have deserved so great a punishment as this metamorphosis from heaven, for some very extraordinary crime." The goldsmith was not to be deceived by what his friend said; but being convinced that he was the author of the metamorphosis, he obliged him to appear before the cadi; ancl there accused him of having stolen his children. " My lord," said the painter, " It is very easy for you to know the truth; order the two bears to be brought here; and if, by their gestures and caresses, they distinguish the goldsmith from the rest of the company, you cannot doubt their being really his children." The cadi consented to make this trial. As soon as the two little bears, wThom the painter had made to fast two days before, saw the goldsmith, they ran to him, and licked liis hands. So extraordinary a sight astonished the cadi, who was so embarassed that he durst not pronounce sentence. The goldsmith confused, returned to the painter, and on his knees confessed his treachery, conjuring him to pray to God to restore his children to their natural form. The painter pretending �24 to be affected with what he said, passed the night with him in prayers. He had before taken away the two bears, and in their place conveyed the two children, whom he had hid till then. The painter conducted their father into the room where they were; and returning them to him, said, " God has heard my feeble prayers, learn from thi3 time to keep strictly to your engagements." � https://scottishchapbooks.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/baa9eb367c60723687e8e321af0705db.jpg dfaceaadc57b9b7d066b704b1643b9f8 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

In this tale, Henry VIII meets a jovial cobbler while exploring the city one night, in disguise. He is so pleased with the humour, songs, and stories of the cobbler that he spends the night drinking with him and invites him to visit him at court and to inquire after a Harry Tudor there. The cobbler takes him up on the offer – still unaware of his new friend’s status – and sets out to court dressed in his Sunday best. When he arrives, he is brought before the king, who he still does not recognize. Henry sends him to the cellar and meets him there again, this time in his disguise, where the cobbler recognizes him, and they drink together until the king’s identity is unmasked, whereupon the cobbler is rewarded with an annuity and by becoming a popular figure at court. The tale includes the drinking song of the cobbler, and is followed by an anecdote on Charles II, and a short (and ironic) moral story (The Two Bears) about two friends who steal a hoard of treasure from a monastery, and the trickery of one of the friends in temporarily replacing his companion’s children with bears as punishment for taking the greater share of the treasure.

The chapbook begins with an advertisement on inside cover indicating that Robert Burns’ earlier poems had been received very favourably and included in a volume of poetry, which has led to these next poems being published. The first poem is a nationalistic declamation of the heroism of the Duke of Hamilton, in the case of a hypothetical French invasion of the Scottish countryside. The second is a love poem on the beauty and charm of Emma, who is compared to the loveliness of the countryside the poem is set in. The final untitled Song is about two young lovers, Jenny and Willy, a shepherd. The song emphasizes the joy and beauty and earnestness of young love as she runs out into the fields and woods to see Willy one evening and he praises and sings for her. At the end, speaks of how love is the best blessing, more than wealth, or power. Is Part Of A related resource in which the described resource is physically or logically included.

The first song is the complaint of a young Highland man whose love interest had left him in order to marry Roy of Aldivalloch instead of himself, followed by a second song is a reply that is written from the perspective of the same girl, lamenting the fact that her parents had forced her to marry Roy of Aldivalloch instead of her true love; after the death of Roy, the two lovers are reunited. The next song is a satirical piece making fun of some of the current fashions and their foolishness and cost. Following this is an amusing song about a young girl who begs her mother to consent to her marrying early, arguing that waiting would only encourage illicit meetings. This is an interesting piece as it details some of the common punishments meted out to transgressors in the local kirk session. The next song urges temperance and sensible living, listing the benefits and practices of these, while the last song details a young man’s inconstancy in love and passion until he finally meets the fair Eliza who inspires him to higher virtue, love, and constancy.

A'-i. A. M..X. VX . OF EVERY KIND OF DREAM. A. A �1 THE ? ROYAL DREAM BOOK. £ •ft- I — — : o : ABUSE. To dream you are insulted, is a sign thai you will have a dispute with some one. ACQUAINTANCE. To dream you quarrel or fight with an acquaintance, it is an unlucky omen; it forebodes a division among your own family, much to the injury and prejudice of the dreamer—if you are in love, your mistress will prove unfaithful, and marry some other man that she has told you she most hates,—if £ou are in business, some heavy loss will befall you; you will disagree with some of your best friends on the most trivial matters, which will end in an open rupture, —if you are a farmer, expect a bad crop, the murrain amongst your cattle; that your pigs and poultry will fail and not fetch good prices,—if you have a lawsuit, depend that your attorney will neglect you, that your witnesses will be tardy and backward, and that finally jfou will lose your cause. Do not for some time undertake a journey by land, or a voyage by sea; enter for * the present into no new undertaking, for you will be unsuccessful ; quit, if you can, your present place of residence; and, above all, avoid lending money, for you will surely lose it together with the friendship of those to whom you lend it. If you dream that you are with an acquaintance at some place of public amusement, Jfou may expect soon to be called from home on business & importance. �3 ADULTERY. To dream of the committing of this sin, forebodes great troubles and misfortunes,—if you are in love, you will certainly fail in marrying the object of your wishes,—if you have a lawsuit, it will certainly go against you, by the treachery of those who pretend to be your friends,—if you are in business, some heavy loss will happen to you. Such a dream announces that you are in great danger of losing your liberty,—and if you are about to undertake a voyage to sea, omit it for the present, for you will never reach the destined port. To dream you are tempted to commit this crime, and that you resist it,it is a happy omen,—everything will flourish with you,—be sure it is a good time to begin trade after such a dream,—if you have a lawsuit, all will go on in your favour, with credit to yourself, and confusion to your opponents,—if you are ajpout to undertake a long journey, it will be pleasant and successful to your object,—if you are going to sea, you will have an agreeable voyage, beautiful weather, and a quick arrival at the port of destination—if you are in love, do not desist in pressing the object of your wishes, for they will be gratified. ADVERSARY. A speedy dispatch of business. AGUE. Shows inclination to strong drink. AIR. To dream of the atmosphere, has a variety of interpretations, and depends entirely on the different appearances it has. If you dream the sky is clear, of a fine blue, calm and serene, then it is a good omen; you will be successful in your enterprises: if you are soliciting any place of preferment, you will surely obtain it,— if you are in love, you will surely marry the object of your affections,—have you a lawsuit ? you will gain it, —are you in trade! it will flourish and be profitable,— are you a farmer? good crops will attend you, your cattle will increase, your pigs and poultry will be abundant, your commodities will fetch a good price at the market,—are you married ? you will have many children, and they will be dutiful and do well,—are you about to undertake a journey ? it will answer your utmost expectations,^-are you going to sea? you will have a pleasant and prosperous voyage,—are you in debt ? you will speedily be enabled to extricate yourself from it,—are you in prison ? you will shortly be set at liberty. �To dream that it is full of thick, dark, and heavy clouds, is an unfavourable token,—you will fall sick, and perhaps die,—disappointments will attend your business. ALTAR. To dream that you are at the altar, betokens joy and gladness. ANCHOR. To dream that you see one, signifies great assurance and certain hope; if you are in love, it warns you to be assiduous to obtain the object of your wishes, otherwise your passion may not meet with success. APPAREL. Nothing more demonstrates the events that are about to happen you, than dreaming of wearing apparel; but almost every colour has a different interpretation, and much depends on its appearing new or old, its fitting you, or being too big or too little. We shall here explain them according to their different significations. Tcf dream you are dressed in white, is a sure token of success in the first object you undertake, and that you will be successful in love, and that your sweetheart is of a good temper and amiable disposition. To dream you are dressed in green, denotes that you are about to undertake a journey to your advantage, and that your sweetheart prefers you to all other lovers. To dream you are dressed in black, is an unlucky omen; some quarrel is about to happen between you and a friend or relation; sickness is about to attend you and your family; death will deprive you of a near friend or relation; lawsuits will perplex and harass you,—if you undertake a journey, it will be unsuccessful, and contribute much to injure your health and fortune,—if you •are in love, it denotes that your sweetheart is very unhappy, and that sickness will attend her,—if you are a farmer, you will be cheated by some knave, and your crops will turn out indifferent; the murrain will attack your cattle, and some dreadful accident will happen by the overturn of one of your waggons;—if you are in business, some one will arrest you, and you will have great difficulty in settling the matter. To dream you are dressed in blue, denotes happiness; you will shortly be invited to some banquet or merry making, when you will make some friends and be very happy, if vou only avoid quarrelling, which some enemy to your welfare will endeavour to excite you to do,—your sweetheart is by �5 this colour denoted to be very faithful to you, and wiU ^ make you very happy and comfortable; you will have many children, chiefly boys, who will turn out hoiieafc and good,—if you are in trade, you will prosper. If yoy. dream you are dressed in scarlet, you are thereby warned of some very heavy calamity and a severe fit of illneap —your sweetheart is by it announced to you to be of a turbulent disposition, much inclined to dispute abou& trifles, and liable to make you very unhappy,—your children will be short-lived, and of very unhappy tempers* much inclined to be very sickly,—it surely denotes & quarrel and loss of friends. To dream you are dressed yellow, is rather lucky than otherwise, your sweetheart by it appears to be very jealous of you, and great pains will be requisite to prevent you separating—if you are married, keep a good look out, for some one is about to alienate the affections of your partner—in trade it pixv arises prosperity; but some one will cheat you of a trifle not of much consequence—if you are a fanner, you wilL have an abundant crop—if you undertake a voyage by sea, you will be greatly the gainer by it; and if you expect any place of preferment, after much trouble you will attain it. To dream you are dressed in crimson, denotes that the dreamer will live to a good old age, and will be neither fortunate nor unfortunate through life: you are about to experience some very pleasant news from a distant quarter, and from those you thought dead. Your sweetheart will be obliged to leave you, but will continue faithful to you—if you are in trade, you will experience some loss by a person that you had great confidence in, but you will, at nearly the same time, get a job that will amply make you amends—it denotes a small dispute between a landlord and his tenant, which will be settled amicably to the advantage of the latter. To dream you are dressed in a variety of colours, denotes a variety of fortunes are about to attend you; old friends will desert you, new ones will supply their place —if you are in love, a quarrel will take place between you and your sweetheart, which will, after much uneasiness to both parties, be adjusted by friends—be cautious in what you do for some time, for many traps will be laid to ensnare you, but on no account trust yourself on the water; relations will shortly die, and if �6 you have any children, sickness will attend them—If you are sick at the time of the dfearn, it denotes » happy and speedy recovery. To dream you are fashion M y dressed, and in good company, is very good for the dreamer; he will rise considerably above his preseafc condition—your sweetheart will prefer you above othenj^ and be very good tempered; whatever you undertake* -Will have a prosperous issue, and some unexpected news of an agreeable nature will reach you—expect to see & long absent friend in good circumstances; but avoid laving a dispute with any one, for it will go against yot* and do harm, particularly if it be with your sweethearts To dream you are dressed shabbily, that your clothes* are ragged and torn, is a bad omen. ASSES. To dream you are riding on an ass, is the forerunner of some foolish quarrel in which you will lie much in the wrong, and condemned by your frie'nds— if you are in love, it denotes that some misunderstanding will happen between you and your sweetheart, m which you will be much in fault—if you are in business?, it foretells that you will make some foolish bargain.. To dream you are driving an ass, denotes that you will fell into some trouble, of which you will get the better, and that you will be relieved from present embarrassments,—if you are in love, it denotes that some quarrel will take place betwixt your sweetheart and yourself^ which will soon be made up again to your advantages To dream an ass runs after you, denotes that some slander will be raised against you by some foolish person, who will become themselves the victims of the scandal raised against you.

AND THE DRUNKEN EXCISEMAN. GLASGOW: PRINTED FOR THE BOOKSELLERS. 5. �SIR NEIL AND GLENGYLE. In yonder Isle beyond Argyle, Where flocks and herds were plenty, Lived a rich Squire, whose sister fair Was the flower of all that country. A knight, Sir Neil, had wooed her long, Expecting soon to marry; A young Highland laird his suit preferred, Young, handsome, brisk and airy. Long she respected brave Sir Neil, Because he wooed sincerely. But as soon as she saw the young Glengyle, He won her most entirely. Till some lies unto her brother came, That Neil had boasted proudly, Of favours from that lady young, Which made him vow thus rudely. I swear by all our friendship past, Before this hour next morning. This knight or me shall breathe our last, He shall know he's scorning. �3 To meet on the shore where the loud waves roar, In a challenge he defied him, Ere the sun was up, these young men met. No living creature nigh them. What ails, what ails my dearest friend ? Why want ye to destroy me; I want no flattery, base Sir Neil, But draw your sword and try me. Why should I fight with you, M'Van, You ne'er have me offended; And if I aught to you have done, I'll own my fault, and mend it ? Is this your boasted courage, knave ? Who would not now despise thee ? But if thou still refuse to fight, I'll like a dog chastise thee. Forbear, fond fool, tempt not thy fate, Presume not now to strike me, There's not a man in all Scotland Can wield the broad-sword like me. Combined with guilt thy wond'rous skill From fate shall not defend thee, My sister's wrongs shall brace my arms, This stroke to death shall send thee. But this, and many a well aimed blow. The generous Baron warded, Being loath to harm so dear a friend, Himself he only guarded. �4 Till, mad at being sore abused, A furious push he darted, Which pierced the brains of bold M'Van, Who with a groan departed. Curse on my skill!—what have I done? Rash man ! —but thou would have i t ; You have forced a friend to take thy life, Who would have bled to save it. Why should I mourn for this sad deed, Since now it can't be mended, My happiness that seemed so nigh, By one rash stroke is ended. An exile into some strange land, To fly I know not whither, I must not see my lovely Ann, Since I have slain her brother. But casting round his mournful eyes, To see if none wore nigh them, There he espied the young Glengyle, Who like the wind came flying. I'm come too late to stop the strife, But since thou art victorious, I'll be revenged, or lose my life, My honour bids me do this. I know your bravery, young Glengyle, Though of life I am now regardless, Why am I forced my friends to kill, See, brave M'Van lies breathless. �5 Unhappy lad, put up thy blade, Tempt me no more I pray thee; This sword that pierced the, Squire so rude, Soon in the dust shall lay thee. Does it become so brave a knight ? Does blood so much affright thee ? Glengyle shall ne'er disgrace thy sword, Unsheath it, then, and fight me, Again with young Glengyle he closed, Intending not to harm him, Three times with gentle wounds him pierced. Yet never could disarm him. Yield up your sword to me, Glengyle, What on is our quarrel grounded? I could have pierced thy dauntless heart, Each time I have thee wounded. But if thou thinkest me to kill, In faith thou art mistaken, So, if thou scorns to yield thy sword, In pieces straight I'll break it. While talking thus, he quit his guard, Glengyle in haste advanced, And pierced his generous, manly breast, The sword behind him glanced. Then down he fell, and cries, I'm slain! Adieu to all things earthly; Adieu, Glengyle, the day's thy own, But thou hast gained it basely. �6 When tidings came to Lady Ann, Time after time she fainted, She ran and kissed their clay-cold lips, And thus their fate lamented. Illustrious, brave, but hapless men, This horrid sight does move me. My dearest friends rolled in their blood, The men that best did love me. O thou the guardian of my youth, My dear and only brother, For this thy most untimely fate, I'll mourn till life is over. And brave Sir Neil, how art thou fall'n, And withered in thy blossom, No more I'll love the treacherous man That pierced my hero's bosom. A kind and tender heart was thine, Thy friendship was abused ; A braver man ne'er faced a foe, Hadst thou been fairly used. For thee a maid I'll live and die, Glengyle shall ne'er espouse me ; And for the space of seven long years, The dowy black shall clothe me. �7 T H E D R U N K E N EXCISEMAN. I know that young folks like to hear a new song, Of something that's funny and not very long, It is of an Exciseman, the truth I will tell, Who thought that one night he was going to hell. Fal de lal, &c. One night he went out to look for his prey, He did meet with some smugglers as I heard them say, In tasting the liquors they were going to sell, The Exciseman got drunk, the truth I will tell. He got so intoxicated, he fell to the ground, And like a fat sow he was forced to lie down, Just nigh to a coal pit the Exciseman did lie, When four or five colliers by chance did come by. They shouldered him up, and hoised him away, Like a pedlar's pack without any delay, Into the bucket they handed him down, This jolly Exciseman they got under ground. The Exciseman awakened with terrible fear, Up started a collier, says, what brought you here ? Indeed, Mr. Devil, I don't very well know, But I think I am come to the regions below. �8 Says the collier, what was you in the world above? I was an Exciseman, and few did me love; Indeed, Mr. Devil, the truth I will tell, Since I have got here, I will be what you will. Since you're an Exciseman, here you must remain, You will never get out of this dark cell again; The gates they are fast, and bind you secure, All this you must suffer for robbing the poor. Indeed, Mr, Devil, if you'll pity me, No more will I rob the poor you shall see; If you will look over as you've done before, I never will rob the poor any more. Come, give me your money which now I demand, Before you can get to the christian land; 0 yes, Mr. Devil, the Exciseman did say, I wish to get back for to see light of day. � https://scottishchapbooks.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/082137accaa85898eb35eb67491ec152.jpg 4cdd87cda89b83be1d1a27cc632a98f7 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

The majority of this chapbook describes the tragic love story of Ann, the sister of a Squire who is woo’d by two men, Sir Neil and Glengyle. When her brother finds out that Sir Neil has been spreading rumours that he has received sexual favours from the young woman, he calls out Sir Neil for a duel. Sir Neil does not want to fight his friend and tries not to injure him, but in fighting for his life, slays his friend. Glengyle shows up and attacks Sir Neil to avenge the fallen Squire and his sister. Again, Sir Neil does not wish to fight, and in the act of declaiming this, is slain by Glengyle. When Ann discovers the deaths of her brother and beau, she vows to not marry Glengyle but to live the rest of her life as a maid. The rest of the chapbook is filled by a humorous song of a corrupt Exciseman who gets drunk after sampling the liquors of smugglers and passes out by a coal pit. When the coal-workers discover the insensible man, they decide to teach him a lesson by hauling him down into the coal pit. Upon waking, the Exciseman is convinced that the coal pit is hell and the coal-man is the Devil, whereupon he swears he will change his ways if only they will let him back up out of hell.
