G I L L MORICE w a s an E a r l ' s son, His name it waxed wide; It was nae for his great riches, Nor yet his meikie pride. His face was fair, lang was his hair, In the wild woods he staid, But his fame was by a fair lady. That liv'd on Carron side.—Where will I get a bonny boy, That will win hose and shoon, That will gae to Lord Barnard's And bid his lady come! Ye maun rin this errand, VViIIie> And maun rin wi' pride, When other boys gae on their On horseback ye shall ride." " O no ! O no I my master dear \ I dare not for my life, I'll no gae to the bauld Baron's For to tryst forth his wife." " My bird Willie, my boy Willie, My dear Willie/' he said, " How can you strive against the stream, For I shall be obey'd." " But, oh, my master d e a r !

Gae, bid her take this gay mantle, T i s sl gowd but the hern; Bid her come to the' gGod'green wood, And bring nane but her lane? And there it is, a silken sark, Her ain hand sew'd the sleeve, And bid her come to Gill Morice, Speir nae bauld Baron's leave." " Yes, I will gae your black errand, Though it be to my cost; Sin ye by me wiM nae be warnd, In it ye shall find frost.

You that do know what to true love belong, Pil tell you a story that lately was done : At Oxford a merchant's fair daughter did dwell, Who for wit and beauty did others excel. A noble young 'squire that lived hard by, Upon this young lady did soon cast an eye, And for to court her he thus did b e g i n : Thou fairest of creatures that ever was seen, D o not be so cruel but yield unto me, For without your love there's no comfort f o r m e ; And now give consent for to be my bride, Or else I am ruined for ever he cry'd. The Vis When So now I 9 smiles did reply, like a creature should die, power your life to save, this that you do crave. With eager embraces be flew to her arms, And said, Thou hast ten thousand charms, Which invited great monarchs to fall at your feet, But I've got the prize and my joys are complete. First ask my father's consent, she did say, For I must ever his pleasure obey : My honoured parents I mean to please, For fear the Heavens be with us displeas'd. 1 �3 Th@n straight to her father the 'squire did go, And the whole matter he gave him to know, Her father was pleased he should be his son, And said, if she loves him it soon shall be done. All things were agreed on, the time was set, And now as soon as the couple were met, This perjured villain, the innocent fair, He with false delusions began to ensnare. With modesty she unto him did s a j , Sir, do not my honour thus strive to betray. This is not true love, but lust you do mean, Better it had been if 1 ne'er had you seen. It will not be long e'er I shall be your bride ; Then seek not my ruin, she to him reply'd: O talk not of ruin, thou pride of my life, May heaven forsake me if thou'rt not my wife. With many persuasions his will he obtain'd, And then her bright person, he soon disdain'd: For straight up to London this villain did come, Leaving his jewel in sorrow to mourn. Her parents wonder'd the 'squire never came, Asking their daughter the cause of the same; She said, honoured father, the cause I don't know, But men they are fickle, and so let therrj go. Tho' she to her parents did not seem surpriz'd, When she was alone, the tears from her eyes �Lifee fewnMil^ would run ; crying, worst of men ; For yput I will trust no man again. But I will wander thro' vallies and groves, Be witness Heaven, how false is my love ! An$ atiU I must love him do all that 1 can, I must a slave to this perjured man. Rich jewels and treasure she did provide, Saying, now I will wander whatever betide ! And if my troubled heart does find any rest, To live m 3 cottage I'd think myself blest. So then from her parents away she did go, Poor soul, with her heart full of sorrow and wo, Theft' lonesome fields and woods she did hie, Then she $ small cottage at length did espy. It was a poor shepherd that in it dwell, Seeing the lady sit down near his cell, H e wel&om'd h.er in, and said, sweft lady fair, Pray what cruel fortune lias driven you here ? Then into his cottage the lady did go. His wife unto her great kindness did show, VVh$n sh& the r shepherd some time had been, Her i'icli^s a$<J jewels, she gave unto them, And s^id, of this matter let no one know : And to keep the sheep in the vallies I'll go, Tlpje Wandering Shepherdess y^u can me call, U n f o r ^ w ^ i feye. is l he. cause of my fal/1. �5 A rich suit of green embroider'*] ware, With a garland of flow'rs had this lady fair, To shade off the sun from her beauty clear, To her sheep in the valJies she did repair. When two long years were fioish'd and gone, T]ie 'squire to Oxford straight did return, Her parents accus'd him of wronging their child, He said, she w as fickle and false as the wind. But now, said her father, I fear she is So we can add nothing to what we have But sure she was honest and virtuous to And you're the man that has caused her dead, said; all? fall. Now we will leave her parents; ta mourn, And unto the Shepherdess let us return, Who was the talk of the folk far and near, At length her lover the sam$ came to hear. He must see this beauty whatever betide; Then he got his coach and away he did ride ; And just as bright Pheebus was going down, He came to the valley where she lay alone. The lambs were sporting in innocent sport, And she was pleased with their harmless sport; ^er fine silver hair sweet breezes did wave, a bank of s-weet lillies she carelessly lay. 0 gods! said the 'squire sure she i& divine, she is mortal, oh h let her be mine, �He little thought it was his love so true, Men so much admire each beauty they view. The charming Shepherdess turned her eyes, Soon did she know hrm to her surprise, But yet who she was he did not know, At length to her cottage she homeward did go. H e followed her home, siying, sweet fair, Pity a lover that is in despair ; For by the glance of your charming eyes, My love-sick heart is fili'd with surprise. Sir, you seem a person of high degree, And I a pt or Shepherdess now as you s e e : Talk not sweet creature, thy charms are so sweet, Will cause the great monarch to fall at thy feet. T h e Shepherdess then invited him in, But now afresh her sorrows do b e g i n : T h e garland of flowers being took from her head, He knew it was his love he thought had been dead His love-sick heart he soon did abate, But he unto her no notice did t a k e ; Quoth he to himself, since it is thee, I ere to-morrow your butcher will be. They parted that nightthe n e x t morning to meet In the sweet pasture where she kept her sheep, And the n e x t morning just as the sun arose, This perjured wretch to the Shepherdess goes; �/ No one being there, he to her did say, Come, madam, strip off that gaudy a r r a y ; As I'm come so far an harlot to see, i am resolved \ o u r butcher to be. Can'st thou be so cruel, to him she did say, My innocent life thus to take aw ay ? , What harm, ny dear jewel, have I done to thee, The crime it was yours, in-deluding me. Vile strumpet, dost thou pres ime for to prat, I Come yield to my sword, for no longer I'll wait. | She to him for mercy did bitterly cry, I But he hard hearted wretch had no mercy. But finding with him she could not prevail, I 0 heaven ! said she, since all flesh is frail, Pardon my crimes, which are many, she cries, i Now traitor I'm ready for ) o u r sacrifice. She op'ned her breast, far whiter than snow, He pierced her heart whilst the crimson did flow "er body he threw in a river near, And thus dy'd the beauty of fair Oxfordshire. Then home he returned, and when he came thsre He wandered about like a roan in despair ; 1 | No rest night nor d xy lie ever could find, The sweet Shepherdess ran so in his mind. Within four days he took to his bed, The doctor gave him over, it is said> �8 When he foutod his dying hour was come, He seat- for her father and told what was done.

FALKIRK: P R I N T E D FOR T H E B O O K S E L L E R S . �WATTY AND MEG. KEEN the frosty winds were blawing, Deep the snaw had wreath'd the ploughs, Watty, wearied a' day sawing, Daunert down to Mungo Blue's. Dryster Jock was sitting cracky, Wi' Pate Tamson o' the hilj, " Come awa," quo' Johnny, " Watty ! Haith w e s e ha'e anither gill." Watty, glad to see Jock Jabos, And sae mony neibours roun', Kicked frae his she on the snaw ba's. Syne ayont the fire sat down. Owre a board wi' bannocl- s heatpet, Cheese, and stoups, and glasses stood ; Some were roaring, ithers sleepit, Ithers quietly chew'd their cude. Jock was selling Pate some tallow, A* the rest a racket hell, A' but Watty, wha, poor fallow ! Sat and smoket by hi'mse!'. M u n g o fill'd him up a toothfu', Drank his health and M e g s in ane, Watty, puffing up a mouthfu', Pledg'd hin\ wi' a weary grane. ''What's the matter, Watty, wi' you ? Trouth, your chafts are fa'ing in ! Something's wrang^-i'm vex'd to see y o u — Gudesake ! but your desp'rate thin ! " « A y , " quo' Watty, "things are alter'd, But it's past redemption now ; �3 Oh ! I wish I had been halter'd When I married Maggy H o w e ! I've been poor, and vex'd and raggy, Try'd wi' troubles no that sma'; Them I bore—but marrying Maggy Laid the cape-stane o' them a\ Night and day she's ever yelping, Wi' the weans she ne ! er can gree : When she's tir'd wi' perfect skelping, Then she flees like fire on me. See ye, M u n g o ! when she'll clash on Wi* her everlasting eleck, Whiles I've had my nieve, in passion, Lifted up to break her back ! " " O for gudesake keep frae cufFets ! " Mungo shook his head and said; " Weel, I ken what sort o' life it's ; Ken ye, Watty, how I d i d ? After Bess and I were kippled, Soon she grew like ony bear, Brak my shins, and when I tippled, Haurl't out my very hair! For a wee I quietly knuckled; But when naething could prevail, Up my claes and cash I buckled,— " Bess, for ever fare ye weel." Then her din grew less and less aye, Haith I gart her change her tune; Now a better wife than Bessy Never stept in leather shoon. �4 Try this, Watty.—When y e see her Raging like a roaring flood, Swear that moment that ye'll lea' her ; That's the way to keep her good." Laughing, sangs, and lasses' skirls, Echoes now out through the r o o f : " D o n e !" quo' Pate, and syne his erls, Nail'd the Dryster's wauket loof. In the thrang o* stories telling, Shaking hauns, and ither cheer, Swith ! a chap comes on the hall an, " Mungo, is our Watty here ?" Maggy's weel kent tongue and hurry Darted through him like a knife; U p ti e door flog—like a fury In came Watty's scalding wife. " Nasty, gude-for-naething b e i n g ! ( ) ye snuffy drucken sow !

Rise, ye drucken beast o' Bethel! Drink's your night and day's desire : Rise, this precious hour! or, faith, I'll Fling your whisky i' the fire" Watty heard her tongue unhallow'd, Pay'd his groat wi' little dins �5 Left the house, while Maggy fallow'd, Fly ting a* the road belli n'. Fowk frae every door cam lamping, Maggy curst them ane an a', Clappet wi4 her hands, and stamping Lost her bauchles i' the straw. Harne, at length,, she turned the gavel, Wi4 a face as white's a clout, Raging like a very deevil, Kicking stools and chairs about. " Ye'll sit wi4 yours limmers round you f Hang you, Sir ! I'll be your death ! Little hauds my hands, confound you ! But I'll cleave you to the teeth." Watty, wha, 'midst this oration, E'ed her whiles, but durstna speak, Sat like patient Resignation, Trem'ling by the ingle cheek. Sad his wee drap brose he sippet, Maggy's tongue gaed like a bell, Quietly to his bed he slippet, Sighing aften to himsel'J Nane are free frae some vexation, Ilk ane has his ills to dree ; But through a' the hale creation Is a mortal vex'd like me !" u A4 night lang he row't and gaunted, Sleep or rest he cou'dna tak ; Maggy, aft wi' horror haunted, Mum'ling, started at his back. �6 Soon a« e'er the morning peepet, Up raise Watty, waefn' ehiel; Kist his weanies, while they sleepet, Wauken'd Meg and sought fareweel.

The Gun is a small silver tube, like the barrel of a pistol, but derives great importance from its being the gift of James VI, that Monarch having ordained marksman among the C o r p o r a t i o n s of Dumfries. it as a prize to the best ��THE DUMFRIES TRADES For loyal feats, and trophies won, DUMFRIES shall live till time be done ! Ae Simmer's morning, wi' the sun, The SEV'N TRADES there, Forgather'd for their SILLER GUN To shoot ance mair. For weeks before this fete sae clever, The fowk were in a perfect fever, Scouring gun-barrels i' the river— At marks practizing— Marching wi' drums and fifes, forever— A' sodgerizing ! 3 �And turning coats, and mending breeks, New seating where the sark-tail keeks ; (Nae matter tho' the cloot that eeks Is black or blue ;) And darning, with a thousand steeks, The stockings too. The lift was clear, the morn serene, The sun just glinting owr the scene, When James McNoe began again To beat to arms, Rouzing the heart o' man and wean Wi' War's alarms. Frae far and near, the country lads (Their joes ahint them on their yads,) Flock'd in to see the show in squads ; And, what was dafter, Their pawky mithers and their dads Came trotting after. 4 �Wi' hats as black as ony raven, Fresh as the rose, their beards new-shaven, And a' their Sunday's deeding having Sae trim and gay, Forth came our Trades, some ora saving To wair that day. 5 �Heh, Sirs ! what crouds were gather'd round, To see them marching up and down ! Lasses and lads, sun-burnt and brown— Women and weans, Gentle and semple, mingling, crown The gladsome scenes ! Meanwhile, before ilk Deacon's dwalling, His ain brigade was made to fall in ; And, while the muster-roll was calling, Mull'd ale and wine Were dealt about in mony a gallon, And gardevine : And cheese-and-bread, and bits o' ham, Laid the foundation for a dram O' whisky, gin frae Amsterdam, Or cherry-brandy ; Whilk after, a' was fish that cam To Jock or Sandy. 6 �The muster owr, the different bands File aff in parties to the Sands, Where, midst loud laughs and clapping hands, Gleed Geordy Smith Reviews them, and their line expands Alang the Nith. 7 �And ne'er, for uniform or air, Was sic a groupe review'd elsewhere ! The short, the tall ; fat fowk and spare ; Side coats, and dockit ; Wigs, queus, and clubs, and curly hair ; Round hats, and cockit ! As to their guns—thae fell engines, Borrowed or begg'd, were of a' kinds For bloody war, or bad designs, Or shooting cushies— Lang fowling-pieces, carabines, And blunder-busses ! And then, to show what diff'rence stands 'Tween him that gets, and gi'es commands, Claymores that, erst, at Prestonpans, Gart foes stand 'yon, Were quiv'ring i' the feckless hands O' mony a drone ! 8 �' Ohon ! ' quo' George, and ga'e a graen, ' The age o' chivalry is gane ! ' Syne, having owr and owr again The hale surveyed, Their route, and a' things else, made plain, He snuff'd, and said : 9 �' Now, Gentlemen ! now mind the motion, ' And dinna, this time, make a botion : ' Shouther your arms!—O! had them tosh on, ' Wheel wi' your right hands to the ocean, ' Wi' that, the dinlin drums rebound, Fifes, clarionets, and hautboys sound ! Thro' crouds on crouds, collected round, The Corporations Trudge aff, whilst Echo's self was drown'd With acclamations ! Their steps to martial airs agreeing, And a' the Sev'n Trades Colours fleeing, Bent for the Craigs, O ! weel worth seeing ! They hy'd awa' ; Their bauld Convener proud o' being The chief owr a'. 10 And march awa ! ' �Attended by his body-guard, He stepp'd in gracefu'ness unpair'd! Straight as the poplar on the swaird And strong as Sampson, Nae eie cou'd look without regard On Robin Tamson. 11 �His Craft, the Blacksmiths, first ava, Led the Procession, twa and twa ; The Squaremen follow'd i' the raw, And syne the Weavers, The Taylors, Souters, Skinners a' And Marrow-cleavers. Their journeymen were a' sae gaucy, Th' apprentices sae kir and saucy, That, as they gaed alang the causey, Sae tight and braw, Th' applauding heart o' mony a lassie Was stown awa. Brisk as a bridegroom gawn to wed, Ilk Deacon march'd before his trade : Foggies the zig-zag followers led, But scarce had pow'r To keep some, fitter for their bed, Frae stoit'ring owr. 12 �As thro'' the town their banners fly, Frae windows low, frae windows high, A' that cou'd find a nook to spy, Were leaning o'er ; The streets, stair-heads, and carts, forbye, Were a' uproar ! Frae rank to rank while thousands bustle, In front, like waving corn, they hustle ; Where, deck'd wi' ribbons round its muzzle, The SILLER GUN, A trinket like a penny whustle, Gleam'd i' the sun ! �Stanzas selected by Gordon F.

My son, I tell thee soothfastly No good is like to liberty : Then never live in slavery. 2 �In the late fourteenth century, the chronicler John of Fordun thought this the natural answer for a Scots sovereign whom the Roman worldpower had summoned to surrender : he writes in Latin. That freedom which our ancestors have left us, which is more to be sought than gold or the topaz stone, far beyond jewels, nay, for us beyond the value of all in the world—this, which our high-hearted fathers have left us unstained, and even to the death served splendidly ; this, not having derogated from their nature, but strong to fulfil their commandment , we too shall keep inviolate for our sons, and pass it on to them in our own turn, unstained by one single spot of slavishness. Farewell. 3 �About the same time another chronicler, John Barbour, wrote in the forefront of his ''Life of Bruce", A noble hairt may haif nane eis, Na ellis nocht that may him pleis, Gif fredom failzie . . . fredom mair to prys Than al the gold in warld that is. 4 �These were not literary flourishes. In 1320 the Estates of Scotland, in Parliament at Arbroath, wrote this to the Pope, in the fifteenth year of the third war for freedom during the l i f e t i m e of all but the youngest present : To [Robert Bruce],who has brought salvation to his people through the safeguarding of their liberties . . . we hold and choose in all things to adhere. Yet Robert himself, should he turn aside from the task that he has begun, and yield Scotland or us to the English king and people, we should cast out as the enemy of us all, and should choose another King 5 �to defend our freedom : for so long as a hundred of us are left alive, we will yield in no least way to English dominion. We fight not for glory, nor for wealth, nor honours : but only and alone we fight for freedom, which no good man surrenders but with his life. In 1482 the Estates again, when threatened with a heavy-weight i n v a s i o n , declared that Our Soverane Lord . . . sal, God willing, defend this realm in honour and fredom, as his nobill p r o g e n i t o u r i s hes done in tymis by-gane. In 1543 an ambassador of the power they defied warns his master that if he attempts to conquer Scotland by force, There is not so little a boy but he will hurl stones against it, the wives will come out with their distaffs, and the commons universally will rather die. 6 �After seven years' resistance to heavy and deliberately brutal invasion, what was under all these sayings was put in two sentences, in 1549, by the author of "The Compleynt of Scotland", perhaps one Wedderburn. The natural love of your native countrey sould be inseparablie rutit in your hairtis, considerand that your lyvis, your bodeis, your h a b i t a t i o u n , your frendis, your livingis and susteinar, your heil, your peace, your 7 �refuge, the rest of your eild, and your sepulture is in it. In 1705, when a war of annexation threatened once more, James Hodges wrote, We have the laws of nature and nations and the justice of the Almighty appeal to. Scotland never yet submitted arms . . . and we hope never to stain our blood and disgrace our pedigree by a disposition so slavish, feminine, and degenerate, as to submit to it now. 8 God and Lord of Hosts to to oppression by force of ��This selection of Scottish sayings on Freedom, edited by Agnes Mure Mackenzie, is set in 12 pt.

And they speered at her what she was seeking, and she said she was seeking service ; and they ga'e her service and set her into the kitchen to wash the dishes, and tak oot the ase, and a' that. And whan the Sabbath-day cam, they a' gaed to the kirk, and left her at hame to cook the dinner. And there was a fairy cam to her, and telt 3 �her to put on her coat o' the beaten gowd, and gang to the kirk. And she said she couldna gang, for she had to cook the dinner ; and the fairy telt her to gang, and she would cook the dinner for her. And she said : ' Ae peat gar anither peat burn, Ae spit gar anither spit turn, Ae pat gar anither pat play, Let Sae Rashie-coat put on her coat o' the beaten gowd, and gaed awa' to the kirk. And the king's son fell in love wi' her ; but 4 �she cam hame afore the kirk scaled, and he couldna find oot wha she was. And whan she cam hame she faund the dinner cookit, and naebody kent she had been oot. Weel, the niest Sabbath-day, the fairy cam again, and telt her to put on the coat o' feathers o' a' the birds o' the air, an' gang to the kirk, and she would cook the dinner for her. Weel, she put on the coat o' feathers, and gaed to the kirk. And she cam oot afore it scaled ; and when the king's son saw her gaun oot, he gaed oot too ; but he couldna find oot wha she was. 5 �And she got hame, and took aff the coat o' feathers, and faund the dinner cookit, and naebody kent she had been oot. And the niest Sabbath-day, the fairy cam till her again, and telt her to put on the coat o' rashes and the pair o' slippers, and gang to the kirk again. Aweel, she did it a ' ; and this time the king's son sat near the door, and when he saw Rashie-coat slippin' oot afore the kirk scaled, he slippit oot too and grippit her. And she got awa' frae him, and ran hame ; but she lost ane o' her slippers, and he took it up. And he gared cry through a' the country, that onybody 6 �that could get the slipper on, he would marry them. Sae a' the leddies o' the court tried to get the slipper on, and it wadna fit nane o' them. And the auld hen-wife cam and fush her dochter to try and get it on, and she nippit her fit, and clippit her fit, and got it on that way. Sae the king's son was gaun to marry her. And he was takin' her awa' to marry her, ridin' on a horse, an' her ahint him ; and they cam to a wood, and there was a bird sittin on a tree, and as they gaed by, the bird said : ' Nippit jit and clippit fit Ahint the king's son rides ; 7 �But bonny fit and pretty fit Ahint the caudron hides.' And when the king's son heard this, he flang aff the hen-wife's dochter, and cam hame again, and lookit ahint the caudron, and there he faund Rashie-coat greetin' for her slipper. And he tried her fit wi' the slipper, and it gaed on fine. Sae he married her. AND THEY LIVED HAPPY AND HAPPY, AND NEVER DRANK OOT O' A DRY CAPPY. 8 ��This story is taken from Chambers's Popular Rhymes of Scotland Set in 11 pt. Scotch Roman Printed by R. and R.

A reprint of a story taken from Robert Chambers’s Popular Rhymes of Scotland. In this variation of a Cinderella tale, Rashie-Coat is a king’s daughter who does not wish to marry the man chosen for her. She seeks the advice of an old hen-wife, who tells her to ask in succession for a cloak of gold, feathers, and rushes with a pair of slippers. When all of these things had been given to her and she still did not wish the match, she runs away from home and finds employment in the kitchens of a house. When everyone goes to kirk that Sunday, she is told to stay home and cook, but a fairy comes to her and bids her to go while she did the cooking for the day. She goes three Sundays in a row, wearing each of her cloaks in order, and drawing the attention of the king’s son, who wishes to marry her. On the third Sunday, he attempts to catch her, causing her to lose her slipper, which he uses to try and find his love. The hen-wife cuts off part of her daughter’s foot to make it fit, but the deceit is discovered by a bird, who informs the king’s son to seek Rashie-Coat behind the cauldron of the house, which he does, and “They lived happy and happy, and never drank oot o’ a dry cappy.” (8) Alternative Title An alternative name for the resource.

BONNY B A R B A R A ALLAN. SIR PATRICK SPENCE. LORD JOHN'S MURDER. GLASGOW: PRINTED FOR THE BOOKSELLERS. 22. �S O N G S . BONNY B A R B A R A ALLAN. I was in and about the Martinmas time, When the green leaves were a falling, That Sir John Graeme in the west countrie Fell in love with Barbara Allan. He sent his man down thro the town, To the place where she was dwelling: O haste and cum to my master dear, Gin ye be Barbara Allan. O hooly, hooly rose she up, To the place where he was lying, And when she drew the curtin by, Young man, I think youre dying. O its I'm sick, and very very sick, And 'tis a' for Barbara Allan. O the better for me ye's never be, Tho your heart's blood were a spilling. O dinna ye mind, young man, said she, When ye was in the tavern a drinking, That ye made the healths gae round and round, And slighted Barbara Allan. �m He turn'd his face into the wa', And death was with him dealing, Adieu, adieu, my dear friends a' And be kind to Barbara* Allan. And slowly, slowly raise she up, ; And slowly, slowly left him"; And sighing, said she cou'd not stay, Since death of life had reft him. She had nae gane a mile but; twa, When she heard the deid-bell ringuag, And ey'ry jow that the deid-bell geid. It cry'd, woe to Barbara Allan! 0 mother, mother, mak my bed, 0 mak it saft and narrow ; Since my luve died for me to-day I'll die for him to morrow. 1 SIR PATRICK SPEN'CE. " The king sits in Dunfermlin town, Sae merrily drinkm' the wine r "Whar will I get<a mariner. Will sail this ship o/ mine ?" Then up bespak a bonnie boy, Sat just at the king's kf*@e; " Sir Patrick Spenee is the- best seamaa That e'er set foot on sea." �4 The king has written a braid letter, Seal'd it wi' his ain hand ; He has sent word to Sir Patrick, To come at his command. " O wha is this, or wha is that, Has tald the king o' me? For I was never a good seaman, Nor ever intend to be." " Be't wind, be't weet, be't snaw, be't sleet, Our ships maun sail the morn." " Ever alack ! my master dear, For I fear a deadly storm." They mounted sail on Munenday morn Wi' a' the haste they may ; And they hae landed in Norraway, Upon the Wednesday. They hadna been a month, a month In Norraway but three, Till lads o' Norraway began to say, " Ye spend a' our white monie. " Ye spend a' our good king's gowd, But and our queen's fee.'' "Ye lie, ye lie, ye liars loud, Sae weel's I hear you lie ; " For I brought as much white monie As will gain my men and me : I brought half a fou o' good red gowd But ower the sea wi' me." �5 " Be't wind or weet, be't snaw or sleet, Our ships maun sail the morn." "Oever lack! my master clear, I fear a deadly storm." " I saw the new moon late yestreen, Wi' the auld moon in her arm ; And if we gang to sea, master, I fear we'll suffer harm," They hadna sail'd a league on sea, A league but barely ane, Till anchors brak, and tapraasts lap There cam a deadly storm. " Whar will I get a bonnie boy Will tak thir sails in hand ; That will gang up to the tapmast, See an he ken dry land?" Laith, laith were our good Scots lords To weet their leather shoon ; But ere the morn, at fair day-light. Their hats were wat aboon. Mony was the feather-bed That flotter'd on the faem ; And mony was the good Scots lord Gaed awa that ne'er cam hame ; And mony was the fatherless bairn That lay at hame greetin. Tis forty miles to Aberdeen, And fifty fathoms deep ; �6 And there lyes a' our good Scots lords, Wi' Sir Patrick at their feet. The ladies wrung their hands sae white, The maidens tore their hair,— A' for the sake o' their true loves For them they'll see nae mair. Lang lang may our ladies stand Wi' their fans in their hand, Ere they see Sir Patrick and his men Come sailing to dry land. LORD JOHN'S MURDER, Lord John stands in his stable door, Says he, I will gae ride ; His lady, in her bigly bower, Desired him to bide. " How can I bide, how can I bide? How shall I bide wi' thee ?.. When I hae kill'd your ae brother You hae nae mair but he. " If ye hae kill'd my ae brother, Alas! and wae is me ; If ye be weel yoursel, my love, The less matter will it be ! " Ye'll go you to yon bigly bower, And take a silent sleep, And I'll watch in my highest tower, Your fair body to keep. �7 She has shut her bigly bower, All wi' a silver pin ; And gone her to the highest tower, To watch that nane come in. But as she looked round about, To see what she could see, There she saw nine armed knights Come riding o'er the lea. " God mak you safe and free, lady, God mak you safe and free! Did you see a bluidy knight Come riding o'er the lea ?" " O what like was his hawk, his hawk? And what like was his hound? If his steed has ridden well, He's pass'd fair Scotland's strand, "Gome in, come in, gude gentlemen, And tak white bread and wine ; And aye the better ye'll pursue, The lighter that ye dine." " We thank you for your bread, lady, We thank you for the wine ; And I would gie my lands sae broad, Your fair body were mine." She has gane to her bigly bower, Her ain gude lord to meet; A trusty brand he quickly drew, Gae her a wound sae deep. �8 " What harm, my lord, provokes thine ire, To wreak itself on me, When thus I strove to save thy life, Yet served for sic a fee?" " Ohon, alas! my lady gay, To come so hastilie ; I thought it was my deadly foe, Ye had trysted into me." "Olive, O live, my gay lady, The space o' ae half hour, And nae a leech in a' the land But I'se bring to your bower." " How can I live, how shall I live ? How can I live for thee ? Ye see my bluid rins on the ground, My heart's bluid by your knee." " O tak to flight, and flee, my love, O tak to flight, and flee! I wouldna wish your fair body For to get harm for me." " Ae foot I winna flee, lady, Ae foot I winna flee; I've dune the crime worthy o' death, It's right that I should die. "Odeal ye well at my love's lyke, The beer but an' the wine ; For, ere the morn, at this same time, Ye'll deal the same at mine.'' � https://scottishchapbooks.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/31e70d5247f0c9c32d88ca0dbacc932a.jpg 23cebd81df7edc6de56857746b88a7f8 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

A collection of ballads and songs, all featuring certain lords in Scotland. In the first, Sir John Graeme falls sick with love for Barbara Allan, but when she visits him, she rejects him due to a slight he had given her once. Consequently, the young man dies and she goes home declaring that she would die herself on the next day since her lover had died for her. In the second, the king nominates Sir Patrick Spence to sail his vessels, even though the man declares that he has no knowledge of the sea. After spending three months in Norway, Sir Patrick and his men are kicked out, whereupon they sink in a storm on their way back to Scotland. In the last, a lord kills his wife’s brother and tries to flee. Regardless, the wife convinces him to stay and vows to protect him. When the dead man’s kin come hunting the killer, she welcomes them and entertains them while her lover hides, but when she visits him later that evening, he mistakes her for his enemies and stabs her, whereupon he declares he will gladly die himself the next day.
