This Judas who betrayed our Lord, was his mother's first child, who dreamed that the child in her womb would prove both a thief and a murderer, and bring her and hi r generation to shame & disgrace : which so terrified her, that she was like to go distracted ; but her husband strove to pacify her, bidding her leave it to G o d the wise disposer of all things who may take it away in its in- �4 fancy or endue it with more grace than ever to be guilty of such dishonourable actions.—This somewhat quieted her, and she was soon after delivered of a lovely male child ; but under his left breast was the following curious marks, viz a cross, a gallows, two daggers, and several pieces of money : this likewise terrified his mother, who concealed it from her husband, determining, as soon as she was able, to go to a magician anci know the signification of these surprising marks. The child being circumcised, and she purified, according to the old Jewish custom* she dressed herself in disguise, put a veil on her face, and taking with her a kinswoman, went to the magician's, and being introduced to him, she i elated her dream, her fears and the marks upon her son, desiring the interpretation of the dream, and the signification of the marks. The magician replied, 1 am no interpreter of dreams, neither do I justly know the signification of marks, & the �5 whofe of your story appears as strange to me, as it can be amazing to you ; but if you can tell me when the child was born, I will calculate its nativity, add see what it portends. He then called for pen, ink, & paper, & sitting down, calculated his nativity; & when he had finished it, he shook his head, and his countenance waxed pale; which being perceived by Judas's mother, she said unto him, do not deceive me, but tell me true, hide nothing from me, whether it be good or evil.—Then, said the magician, to your sorrow I have seen the rules of the planet that reigned predominant at your son's birth, that he would prove a thief and a murdeier, & what is worse, he will, for lucre, betray the Lord of Life ; for which act he will afterwards despair of mercy, lay violent hands on himself, and come to a shameful end.—These words pierc'd the mother's heart, who, wringing her hands, wished she had never been born, rather than to have been the mother of such an �6 unhappy child ; and asked the magician what she could do to prevent the bringing of shame of disgrace on her family? He told her he knew no way of prevention, but by laying violent hands on it, which might be now easily done in its infancy,—in a manner so as not to be discovered.—To this she replied, that she would not for ten thousand worlds commit such an act of violence on her son ; as if her husband had the least suspicion of it, he was so fond of Judas, that he would never be reconciled to her again ; yet for the sake of her family, she would by some means or other prevent it without destroying it; and then told the magician, if she had a small boat made like a shell,with a cover to go down close that no water might get in, and a little vent to let in air at top, and room in it to lie soft and easy, she might without danger send him down the river Jordan, and so commit him wholly to the protection of Providence, which might conduct him to some dis- �7 tan t shore,irito thehands of sometender persons, and thereby pieserve his life; & if he afterwards commits those base actions the shame will fall on his own head, as no one will know from whom he is descended. The magician highly commended her for her invention, and said he would procure such a boat for her ; and she promising him a good reward for his assistance, returned home. After she was gone, the magician sent for one Rot, a very cunning artist, a joiner, to trade, who undertook to make the boat, drawing out with his pencil, the form of it, carried it home with him, wrought upon it in private, & having soon finished it, brought it to the magician's house, who paid him largely for it, & sent a servant to the house of Simon, who told Judas's mother, that the matter which his master & she spoke of was now finished. She understanding him, went next morning to the magician's house, viewed the boit, & liked it well, saying it was very convenient for �8 the end intended, but seeffi'd perplexed how she should do it privately* & keep it from discovery as death was the consequence thereof. Her kinswoman begged her to leave that to her, and all should be safe enough; for we will feign the child sick for a day or two, in the meantime we will make some inquiry in the city for the dead body of some poor male child which we will buy of its parents, and have it privately brought to our house lo be buried ; in the meantime we will dispatch your son to sea, and make him believe the other child to be his, and that he died during his absence ; so having it buried, the matter can never be brought to light. The mother liked the contrivance, & going home with a promise of a great reward, and her friendship for life, she swore her servants to secrecy, & then, said she, we must act in this manner. When your master comes home at night, I shall put on verv dejected looks, and when he asks the cause, I shall tell him �9 that Judas is not well, and that I am apprehensive of his death, which you must all testify & confirm. She accordingly put this scheme into practice at night, when her husband did all he could to comfort her, telling her that they were young, they mi^ht be parents of many children; and going- up stairs to see the child, the-maid then pinched its neck till it was black in the face, and thinking it in convulsions, gave it over to death. As soon as he was gone out in the morning, the mother & kinswoman took the child & went to the magician's house, in order to put the child to sea. They put on him many warm and rich garments, with an upper coat of oil, that no water might penetrate i t ; and the magician, 011 a piece of parchment, wrote the following words : My Name is JUDAS. which his mother sewed round his neek and put him into the boat, and shut �I • v ' 10 down the cover. At parting with the child the mother was almost distracted, wringing her hands and weeping much, but being comforted by the magician & her kinswoman she was at last pacified, & desired to go home, as she could not bear to see her child put into the water, so she and her kinswoman departed home. The magician then took the boat & cari ied it down to his own garden, at the foot of which ran the river Jordan, & putting it in where a strong* stream ran, it was soon carried out of sight. The mother when she got home fainted away, but was revived by being inforiii'd by her maid-servant, that during her absence they had almost brought the matter to a close, having found a neighhour's male child, who had died the day before, and was just of the same age as Judas, for whose body they had given the parents a small sum of money, and paid the expense of burying a coffin full of bones, by way of a blind ; and the �11 only thing to be done was to deceive her husband, and get this child buried under the sanction of Judas's body. The father came home at night, and finding his wife in tears, soon guessed the dismal cause ; and inquiring of the servants, they with dissembled grief told him, that the child died in the morning soon after his departure. The man was much affected with the loss of his child, and thinking to prevent his wife's grief by the sight of the body he had it removed to a kinsman's house, and in a day or two interred it from thence, believing it to be his son. By this time Providence had conducted Judas, alive & well, upon the coast of of Iscariot, a kingdom in Palastine, where Pheophilus the king often used to recreate himself, in beholding the ships pass and repass at sea. It happened that the very day that Judas was cast on the coast, the king and his nobles came on that diversion, & as they were standing on the top of the rock, �looking into the sea, the king espied a little boat floating upon the water, and thinking it to be a chest of some wrecked ship, he ordered a servant to put out a boat and fetch it; which being done, and brought to the king, lie ordered it to be broke open; when to their great surprise, they found a lovely babe* who look,d up, and smiled in the king's face. Then said the king to the child, WELCOME AS MY OWN C H I L D ; and expressed much joy in being providentially sent to preserve the babe's life, and taking it up in his arms, said, if thou wert a child begat by me, I could not esteem or value thee more. Then he espied about its neck the aforementioned parchment, viz : My Name is JUDAS. Well, said the king, as thy name is Judas, I will now double name thee, and then called him Judas Iscariot, because he found him near the coast of that �IS name. He was then brought to court, treated as the king's own child, & at a proper age educated well, and at last became a man of learning and parts, and behaved himself so wisely, that the king made him his principle steward. Judas being arrived at this rank, still coveted greater, and remembering the queen one day said, that if the prince, her son died, Judas should be her beir, he therefore set about contriving to kill him, accordingly professed great love and friendship for him ; and one day being walking- together, Judas took occasion to quarrel with the prince, and maliciously slew him, thinking all would go well with him if he was dead. Behold the servant which the king Long nourish'd in his breast, Grown v arm, strikes forth his baneful sting, And robb'd him of his rest. �14 Though none accused him of the murder, yet his conscience so stung* him, that he soon quitted the kingdom, leaving all his pomp and finery behind him, and changing his name, look upon him the mean employ of a servant, wandering about from place to place, until at length he arrived at Joppa, the place of his nativity; here he soon got a place in a nobleman's family, where he behaved so well as to gain the esteem of his lord and lady, and all that knew him. One day it happened, that as his lady was walking abroad big with child, she longed for some fruit, which she saw in Judas's father's garden, bidding him go & buy her some. He took the money, but resolved to steal the fruit; and going to the garden, broke down the fences, which as he was doing his father came out and seized him for the robbery, & Judas, to keep himself from the hand of justice, murdered his father, and immediately escaped to Theba, a city about seventy-six leagues distance. Ifere he continue J about four years, �15 in which time the noise of the murder being blown over, he retnrned back again, and got a good place in a nobleman's family, where he lived sometime, till his own mother accidentally seeing him fell in love with and married him. About five years after they had been married, one morning in bed Judas'* shirt bosom lay open, when she saw under his left breast the marks he was born with ; upon which she waked him in an agony, and told him the story of his birth, and the part she had acted therein. Judas heard this with wonder and astonishment, and on his part confessed to her the many crimes he had been guilty o f ; after which she desired him to depart from her, and seek mercy of God in another country ; protesting she would never be carnally known to him any more. Judas full of grief & remorse of conscience, left Joppa and wandered about like a pilgrim, till he heard of a mighty prophet called Jesus of Nazareth, �16 in the land of Judea, who wrought many miracles, and wondeiful works; to him he went, and liking his doctrine and seeing his miracles, he begged of our Lord to be admitted one of his followers: making him one of his disciples, and also his treasurer. Notwithstanding all this Judas could not forget his covetousness, for when Mary Magdalen brought a box of costly ointment, to annoint our dear Lord's feet, at the house of Simon the Leper, Judas was offended thereat, because the value thereof was not put into his bag. But our Lord knowing his covetous and wicked heart, sharply rebuked him ; at which he was so enraged, that he in revenge premeditated, and put into execution, the worst action of all his life, and going to the chief priests and elders, he said unto them, what will you give me, and I will betray him they call Jesus into your hands ? And they agreed with him for thirty pieces of silver, �17 The love of money is a rock Which causes care and trouble, And he that hasteth to be rich, He makes his sorrows double. Money's a most alluring bate, Conducive unto evil, For this, base Judas sold his God, Himself unto the devil. When ourLord was instituting his last snpper, he said unto his disciples, I have chosen you twelve, but one of you is a devil. And again, Verily I say unto ye, one of ye this night shall betray me, & he it is unto whomsoever I shall give a sop: then giving a sop unto Judas, he said unto him what thou dost do quickly. With the sop the devil entered into Judas, and he went out from amongst them.—Judas then went to the chief priests, & received the thirty pieces of silver ; so taking with him an armed band, telling them that whomsoever he should kiss, the same was he, hold him �18 fast, came back to where Jesus was, and meeting him in the Garden of Gethsemane, he went up to him saying, Hail, Master, and kissed him. Then they laid hands on the Lord, and bound hitu as a thief and a murderer, and led him away to the high Priest and Eldei who asked him many question3 ; to which our Lord gave them no answer, •but stood like a lamb dumb before his shearers. Nevertheless, the whole assembly, though they found nothing worthy of death in him, one by one passed the following sentences on him : h �19 JERUSALEM'S B L A C K T R I B U I i L ; OR, THE Bloody Sentence of the Jews, AGAINST OUR BLESSED LOUD A N D SAVIOUR, &EStJS CHRIST.

The first is a recounting of the events of the Battle of the Boyn wherein King William routes the deposed James II at the Boyn in Ireland during the First Jacobite Rising. There is an interesting play on the nationalist tone of piece that seems to support the Protestant monarchy while still providing a somewhat sympathetic view of James. The second ballad is a ribald song about a miller who “sets his stones to work” on first the daughter, then the wife of an old man, who are both pretty pleased with their ‘encounters’. When the old man goes to revenge himself on the miller, the miller instead beats the old man and sends him back home to his womenfolk.

PRINTED FOR THE BOOKSELLERS. �THE BLAEBERRY COURTSHIP. W i l l ye go to the Highlands, my jewel, with me ? W i l l ye go to the Highlands, the flocks for to see ? I t is health to my jewel to breathe the sweet air, A n d to pull the blackberries in the forest so fair. T o the Highlands, my jewel, I will not go with thee, For the road it is long, and the hills they are high ; I love those valleys and sweet corn fields, [yield. More than all the blackberries your wild mountains Our hills they are bonnie when the heather's in bloom, I t would cheer a fine fancy in the month of June, T o pull the blackberries and carry them home, A n d set them on your table when December comes on. �3 Out spake her father, that saucy old man, You might have chosen a mistress among your own clan; It's hut poor entertainment to our Lowland dames, To promise them heather and blue heather bloom. Kilt up your green plaidie, walk over yon hill, For a sight of your Highland face does me much ill; For I will wed my daughter, and spare pennies too, To whom my heart pleases, and what's that to you ? My plaid it is broad, it has colours anew, Goodman, for your kindness, I'll leave it with you I have got a warm cordial keeps the cold from me— The blythe blinks of love from your daughter's e'e. My flocks they are thin, and my lodgings but bare, And you that has meikle the more you can spare; Some of your spare pennies with me you will share, And you winna send your lassie o'er the hills bare. He went to her daughter to give her advice, Said, if you go with him I'm sure you're not wise, He's a rude Highland fellow, as poor as a crow, He's of the clan Caithness for ought that I know. But if you go with him, I'm sure you'll go bare, You'll have nothing father or mother can spare; Of all I possess I'll deprive you for aye, If o'er the hills lassie you go away. It's father keep what you are not willing to give, For I fain would go with him as sure as I live ; What signifies gold or treasure to me, If the Highlands are between my love and me. ; �4 Now she is gone with him in spite of them a', Away to a place which her eyes never saw; H e had no steed for to carry her on, But still he said lassie think not the road long. I n a warm summer's evening they came to a glen, Being wearied with travel the lassie sat down : Get up my brave lassie let us step on, For the sun will go down before we get home, M y feet are all torn my shoes are all rent, I ' m wearied with travel and just like to faint, Were it not for the sake of your kind company, I would lie in the desert until that I die. The day is far spent and the night's coming on, A n d step you aside to yon mill-town, And there you'll ask lodgings for thee and for me, For glad would I be in a barn for to be. The place it is pleasant and bonny indeed, But the people are hard-hearted to them that's in need Perhaps they'll not grant us their barn nor byre, But I'll go and ask them as it is your desire. The lassie went foremost, sure I was to blame, T o ask for a lodging myself I thought shame: The lassie replied with tears not a few, It's ill ale, said she, that's sour when it's new. I n a short time thereafter they came to a grove, Where his flocks they were feeding in numberless droves, Allan stood musing his flocks for to see, Step on, says the lady, that's no pleasure to me. �5 A beautiful laddie, with green tartan trews, And twa bonnie lassies were buchting in ewes, They said, honoured master are you come again, Long, long have we look'd for your coming hame. Bught in your ewes lassie, and go your way home, I've brought a swan frae the north, I have her to tame; Her feathers are fallen, and where can she lie ? The best bed in the house her bed shall be. The lady's heart was far down, it couldna well rise, Till many a- lad and lass came in with a phrase, To welcome the lady, to welcome her home : Such a hall in the Highlands she never thought on. The laddies did whistle, and the lassies did sing They made her a supper might served a queen, Long life and happiness they wished her all round, A n d they made to the lady a braw bed of down. Early next morning he led her to the hay, He bade her look round her as far as she could spy, These lands and possessions my debt for to pay, Y e winna gae round them in a lang simmer day. O Allan! O Allan! I ' m indebted to thee, It's a debt dear Allan, I never can pay, O Allan! O Allan! how came you for m e ? Sure I am not worthy your bride for to be. H o w call you me Allan, when Sandy's my name ? W h y call you me Allan ? sure you are to blame ; For don't you remember when at school with thee, I was hated by all the rest but loved by thee. "I �H o w oft have I fed on your bread and your cheese, Likewise when you had but a handful of pease, Y o u r cruel-hearted father hound at me his dogs, They tore my bare heels, and rave all my rags, Is this m y dear Sandy whom I loved so dear ? I have not heard of y o u this many a y e a r ; W h e n all the rest went to bed, sleep was frae me, For thinking what was become of thee. M y parents were born lang before me, Perhaps by this time they are drowned in the sea, These lands and possessions they left them to me, A n d I came for thee, jewel, to share them with thee. I n love we began, and in love we will end, A n d in j o y and mirth our days we will s p e n d ; A n d a voyage to your father once more we will go, A n d relieve the old farmer from his trouble and woe. W i t h men and maid-servants to wait them upon, A w a y t o her father in a chaise they are g o n e ; T h e laddie went foremost—the brave Highland loon, Till they came to the road that leads to the town. W h e n he came to the gate he gave a loud roar,— Come down gentle farmer, Catherine's at your door. When he looked out at the wiudow he saw his daughter's face, W i t h his hat in his hand he made a great phrase.. K e e p on your hat, farmer, don't let it fa', F o r it sets not the peacock to bow to the crow. I t ' s hold your tongue, Sandy, and do not taunt me, F o r my daughter's not worthy your bride for to be. �Now he held his bridle reins till he came down, A n d then he conveyed him to a fine room ; W i t h the finest of spirits they drank a fine toast, And the son and the father drank both in one glass. THE CROOK AND PLAID. I f lassies love the laddies, they surely should confest, For every lassie has a lad she loes aboon the rest, He's dearer to his bosom whatever be his trade, And through life I'll loe the laddie that wears the Crook and Plaid. He's aye true to his lover, aye true to me. H e climbs the mountain early, his fleecy flocks to view, He spies the little laverocks spring out frae 'mang the dew; His faithful little doggie, so frolicsome and glad, Wanders forward with the laddie that wears the Crook and Plaid. For he's, &c. He pu's the blooming heather, he pu's the lily meek, Calls the lily like my bosom, the heather like my check; His words are aye so tender, my heart is aye so glad, There's nae wooer like the laddie that wears the Crook and Plaid. For he's, &c �8 I winna hae the laddie that ca's the cart and plough, Although he may be tender, although he may be true B u t I will hae the laddie that has my heart betrayed, H e ' s the faithful shepherd laddie, that wears the Crook and Plaid. F o r he's, &c. It's down beside the hawthorn that blooms in yonder vale, I'll meet him in the gloaming far frae the noisy gale, His words are aye so tender, my heart is aye so glad, For he kens the way sae nicely to row me in his plaid For he's &c. To such a faithful lover, oh who would not comply! True love gives greater pleasure than aught beneath the sky. If love be in your bosom my heart can ne'er be sad. And through life I'll loe the laddie that wears the Crook and Plaid. For he's &c. � https://scottishchapbooks.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/ad2d50b585a267a2442aadcc853d3bc4.jpg a621ec698b1b9de469213f810f6a1bd8 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

The first is the story of the love between a Highland lad and a Lowland girl. The girls’ father is against the match and disinherits her when she decides she runs off with him. In the beginning, it looks like she has made the wrong choice as she is forced to walk and beg for them both on the way to the Highlands, but when they arrive it turns out he is a laird and she is treated as the lady of a great estate. In the end they both go back to visit and reconcile with the father. The second song is a short ballad about a young girl’s love for a shepherd.

PRINTED FOR T H E BOOKSELLERS. �DUKE OF GORDON'S D A U G H T E R S . The Duke of Gordon had three daughters, Elizabeth, Margaret, and Jean ; They would not stay in bonny Castle Gordon, But they went away to bonny Aberdeen. They had not been in bonny Aberdeen, A twelvemonth and a day, Till Jean fell in love with Captain Ogilvie, And away with him went she. Word came to the Duke of Gordon, In the chamber where he lay, How lady Jean fell in love with a Captain, And from him she would not stay. Go saddle me the black horse, he cried, My servant shall ride on the grey, And I'll go to bonny Aberdeen, Forthwith to bring her away. They were not a mile from bonny Aberdeen, A mile but only one, Till he met with his two daughters, But away was lady Jean. O where is your sister, maidens ? Where is your sister, now; O where is your sister, maidens, That she's not walking with you ? �3 O pardon us honoured father! O pardon they did say: Lady Jean is with Captain Ogilvie, And from him she will not stay. When he came to bonny Aberdeen, And down upon the green, There he did see Captain Oglivie, A training of his men, O woe be to thee Captain Ogilvie! An ill death shalt thou die, For taking to thee my daughter, High hanged thou shalt be. The Duke of Gordon wrote a broad letter And sent to the king, To cause him hang brave Captain Ogilvie, If ere he caused hang any man. No I will not hang Captain Ogilvie, For any offence that I see, But I'll cause him to put off the scarlet And put on the single livery. Now word came to Captain Ogilvie, In the chamber where he lay, To strip off the gold and scarlet, And put on the single livery If this be for bonny Jeannie Gordon, This penance I'll take wi', If this be for bonny Jeannie Gordon, All this and more I'll dree. �4 Lady Jean had not been married, A year but only three, Till she had a babe in every arm, And another on her knee. O but I'm weary wandering! O but my fortune is bad, It sets not the Duke of Gordon's daughter, To follow a soldier lad. O hold your tongue, bonny Jean Gordon, O hold your tongue my lamb, For once I was a noble captain, Now for thy sake a single man. O high was the hills and the mountains, Gold was the frost and snow; Lady Jean's shoes were all torn, No farther could she go. O if I was in the glens of Foudlen, Where hunting I have been, I could go to bonny castle Gordon, Without either stockings or sheen O hold your tongue bonny Jean Gordon, O hold your tongue my dow; I've but one half-crown in the world, I'll buy hose and shoon to you. When she came to bonny Castle Gordon, And coming over the green, The Porter cried out, with a loud voice, Yonder comes our lady Jean. �5 You are welcome bonny Jeanie Gordon, You are dearly welcome to me ; You are welcome dear Jeanie Gordon, But away with your Ogilvie. Now over the seas went the Captain, As a soldier under command ; But a messenger soon followed after, Which caused a countermand. Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie, To enjoy your brother's land ; Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie, You're the heir of Northumberland. O what does this mean ? says the Captain Where is my brother's land ? Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie, You're the heir of Northumberland. O what does this mean ? says the Captain, Where's my brother's children three? O they are all dead and buried, The lands are all ready for thee. Then hoist up your sails brave Captain, And let's be jovial and free; I'll go home and have my estate, And then my dear Jeanie I'll see. He soon came to bonny castle Gordon, And then at the gate stood he; The Porter cried out with a loud shout, Here comes Captain Ogilvie ! �6 You're welcome pretty Captain Ogilvie Your fortunes advanced I hear, No stranger can come, to my gates That I do love so dear. Sir, the last time I was at your gate You would not let me in . I am come for my wife and children, No friendship else I claim. Then she came tripping down the stair, With the saut tear in her e'e, One babe she had at every foot, Another upon her knee You're welcome, bonny Jean Gordon. Your're dearly welcome to me, You're welcome bonny Jean Gordon, Countess of Northumberland to be. Now the Captain came off with his lady, And his sweet babies three, Saying, I'm as good blood by descent, Though the great Duke of Gordon you be. JEM OF ABERDEEN. The tuneful laverocks cheer the grove. And sweetly smiles the summer green Now o'er the mead I love to rove Wi' bonny Jem of Aberdeen. ; �7 Whene'er we sit beneath the broom, Or wander o'er the flowery lea, He's always wooing, wooing, wooing, O Jamie's always wooing me. He's fresh and fair as flowers in May, The blythest lad on a' the green; How sweet the time will pass away W i ' bonny Jem of Aberdeen! Wi' joy I leave my father's cot, Wi' ilka sport of glen or green, Well pleased to share the humble lot Of bonny Jem of Aberdeen. THE BONNY HOUSE O' A I R L Y , It fell upon a day, a bonny summer day, When the clans were a' wi' Charlie, That there fell out a great dispute Between Argyle and Airly. Argyle has called a hundred o' his men, To come in the morning early, [keld, And they hae gane down by the back o' DunTo plunder the bonny house o' Airly. Lady Ogilvie looked frae her window, sae hie, And O but she grat sairly, To see Argyle and a his men Come to plunder the bonny house o' Airly. �8 Come doon, come doon, lady Ogilvie, he cried, Come doon and kiss me fairly, Or ere the morning's clear daylight I'll no leave a standing stane in Airly. I wadna come doon, great Argyle, she cried, I wadna kiss thee fairly: I wadna come doon, false Argyle, she cried, Though you shouldna leave a standing stane in Airly. But were my ain guid lord at hame, As he is noo wi' Charlie, The base Argyle and a' his men Durstna enter the bonny house o' Airly O I hae seven bonny sous, she said, And the youngest has ne'er seen his daddie, And though I had ane as mony mae, They'd a' be followers o' Charlie, Then Argyle and his men attacked the bonny ha, And O, but they plundered it fairly ; In spite o' the tears the lady let fa', They burnt doon the bonny house o' Airly. � https://scottishchapbooks.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/f6fee954607f0a66150f416398ca03cd.jpg 064ca1028cdaa338290a6d9f1f72a981 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

A collection of songs and ballads. In the first ballad, the youngest daughter of the Duke of Gordon goes to visit Aberdeen with her sisters and ends up marrying a handsome but poor captain without her father’s consent. When the Duke finds out, he chases down his daughter and tries to get the captain executed. The king refuses the request, but does have the captain demoted from his rank to a single soldier. Poverty and childbirth do not appear to suit the young lady and the family goes to visit her parents. Jean is welcomed by her family back home but her husband is shunned and sent away. The poor captain is sent across the sea until he suddenly receives word that he is made the Count of Northumberland as his brother and family have died. He returns to Gordon’s castle for his wife and family, who now join him happily, but scorns the welcome of his wife’s family who are suddenly much more friendly now that he is landed in his own right. This ballad is followed by two short songs, the first describing the pleasant courtship of a boy from Aberdeen, and the second recounting the attack of Argyle against the House of Airly while the Lord of Ogilvie is away fighting for Charles Stewart.

This maid was the daughter of a gentleman Of the name of M'Far lane, and of the same clan; But Grigor was born in a Highland isle, And by blood relation her cousin we style COME But where riches are wanting we oftentimes see Few men are esteemed for their pedigree. *Tis father was forced, when he was a child, To leave this realm; and, when he was exiled, His lands they were forfeit, I let you know, Because of rebellion, the truth for to show. Both gold and vast riches he with him did give For his education, and how he might live. And solely he to the care of his friend, Was left by his father to be maintained; He learned him, indeed, to read and to write, In all rules of Arithmetic he made him perfect ; In Latin and French he taught him also, That he through the world was fit for to go. The king was recruiting, and all hands did employ, While her father as a servant used this young boy. i. f llJX A, �For all kinds of drudgery he made him to serve* And still to keep him as a corps of reserve ; Such a beautiful young man was not in the place, None could compare with him in stature and grace. The charming Miss Katie was oft in the way, One day in love's passion she to him did say— My dear cousin Grigor, I've something to tell, Which now from my bosom this day I reveal: You know that with lovers I'm plagued to the heart, But you are the object that makes me to smart; If you do but love me, dear cousin, said she, I'm happy for ever, so therefore be free. Then, said he, dear Katie, I'm all in a stun, I suppose your intentions are nothing but fun; But had I a subject to balance with you, I'd think myself happy your suit I might trow. 0, said she, dear Grigor, I'm no way in jest, And if you deny me then death's my request; You know the substance and wealth that I have, 'Tis enough to uphold us both gallant and brave. I know that my parents for more riches are bent, But a few years by nature will make them extinct. Till which time, my Grigor, I do make this vowv That I never will marry another but you. 0, then he consented and flew to her arms, And said, my dear Katie, I'm killed by your charms But if your parents this fond love should know, Fhey soon will cause our sad overthrow. Of t'l it, my dear Grigor, be silent I pray, This night we will part, and will meet the next day, �Under the broad oak by the cave in the glen, Where more of my mind to you I'll explain. P A R T II. Her mother next morning, by the blink of h er eye, Betwix^t her and Grigor great love did espy, And she to her husband the same soon revealed, Giving orders to watch them as they're in the field. All day then her father went looking about, And after her he still kept a look out, Till hard on the evening she went to the glen, Where Grigor was waiting to hear her explain The way they would manage and make matters go, Her father did follow and heard them also, He stepped in softly, stood over the cave, Hearing their discourses, how they would behave. At length he advanced, cried Grigor what now ? Is this the reward from such an orphan as you ? You know I've maintained you since seven years old, And now your intentions they seem very bold. Then Grigor ask'd pardon, and thus he did say, Sir, I'm at your disposal, then do as you may ; The old man in a passion there chiding did stand, Till Katie took courage and speech into hand. Why mean ye dear father on us for to frown ? Was this man a beggar I'm sure he's our own, He's of our kindred, our flesh, and our blood, And you know very well his behaviour is good. T i s him that I chose for my husband, and shall; Go, give all your riches to whom that you will, �6 Do not think I'm a hog or a horse to be sold, Away to some num-skull that has nought but gold ? The father in a rage to the mother did go, And told their proceedings with sorrow and woe; He seem'd that night as his auger had been gone, Lest that young Grigor from the place should abscond. jJut he sent a messenger into Inverness, Which brought out a party young Grigor to press And for to make ready gave no time we hear, He ask'd but one i&vour, a word of his dear. When being denied, the old man with a frown, Said, soldiers can have sweathearts in every town • A t this the young lady cried bitterly, May the heavens requite you for your cruelty. Young Grigor took courage and marched away, When the Captain viewed him thus to him did say. For the lady that lov'd you, sir, I pity her case, Who's lost such a beauty and sweet blooming face. His lady cried out, what a wretch can he be, Caus'd press this young man for no perjury. His long yellow hair to his middle hangs down, O'er his broad shoulders so fine round and round Now Grigor considering his pitiful case, Received the bounty, and swore the peace; His captain unto him a furlough he gave, To see his dear Katie he once more hid crave. Two lines he then sent her by a solid hand, That he under the oak at midnight would stand, For to wait upon her, and hear her complaint, And there for to meet him she was well content. �3 Hf*r \ows she renewed, and with tears not a few, And a gold ring on's finger as a token she drew, Which was not to move, come death or come life, Till that happy moment he made her his wife. She fain would go with him but he answered no, For your parents would follow and cause us more w M y Maker be witness, and this green oak, said he, That I never shall love a woman but thee. iirf And there then he left her a-weeping full sore, Poor creature she never got sight of him more, For in a short time thereafter he went to the sea, And left the sight of Britain with the tear in his eye, And went to America, their orders being so, There proved a gallant soldier, and valour did show; That for his good behaviour they ne'er could him blame From a Corporal to a Sergeant he became. fV t; '' '' /' t' 3 :f 7 "yvol jmH ybal erf* wl n.r, < /, -\a& vtaB-u-.f J dpMci Jaol e'odW 5 P A R T III. vrn' on 'rol ns«i annoy 883KJ nanflJ Being near Fort Niagara in the year fifty-nine, On the thirtieth of July, as he always did iiicline To frequent the green-wood, at some distant place, To breathe out his sorrows his mind to solace.

Cut off with his broad-sword as is uixderstpo^, A s there all about him was nothing but bloocl; • • �Five Wounds on his body, his hair scalped away, •Hite clothes, sword, and pistol, of all made a prey. And one of his fingers from his hand they had cut, On which was the gold ring from his lover he got. In that very moment in Scotland we hear, A dreadful spectre to his love did appear. <;. .. • A s she was a-weeping under the green oak, He quickly passed by her and not a word spoke, Yet shaking his left hand, where the ring he did wear. It wanted a finger, and blood dropped there. Whereat the young lady was struck with amaze, And rose to run after and on him did gaze, && she knew it was Grigor, but how in that place, It made her to wonder and dread the sad case. With terror and grief home she did retire, And spent the whole night in weeping and prayer ; So early next morning she rose with the sun, And went back to the green oak to weep all alone. For always she esteemed that place as we hear, A s on it she got the last sight of her dear; As there she sat weeping and tearing her hair, Again the pale spectre to her did appear. And with a wild aspect it stared in her face, Then said, 0 dear Katie, do not me embrace, For I'm but a spirit though shining in blood, My body lies murdered in a foreign wood. There's two wounds in my body and three in my side, With hatchets and arrows that's both deep and wide My scalp and fine hair for a premium are sold, As also ihy finger with the ring of pure gold. �I Which you threw upon it as a mark of true love, Love's stronger than death, for it does remove, But my earnest desire it is for you, m^ dear, And till you are with me I'll still wander here. For this world's but vanity, all's but a vain show, 'Tis nought to the pleasures where we are to g o ; She went to embrace him, being void of all fright^ But he in a moment went out of her sight. Then home in great horror to her father did run, Crying, 0 ! cruel father now what have you done ? Grigor, lov'd Grigor came to me in blood, And his body lies murdered in an American wood. He showed me his wounds, and each bleeding sore, And therefore my pleasures on earth are no more, Her father looked at her as one being amaz'd, Then said my dear Katie, your brains they are craz'dL But still she mantained it and cried like a child, Never after was seen for to laugh nor to smile ; Brought to her all doctors, whose skill was in vain, But still gave opinion she was sound in the brain. Her body decayed, her face grew wan and pale, She soared to her true love, beyond death's dark vala, First her, then her mother, in one night expired, I hope she enjoys the bliss she desired. Now the old father cries, bereft of all joys, Though he has plenty of gold no girls nor boys. Let ail cruel parents to this take great heed, His pretty young daughter is now with the dead. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A young Lowland McFarlane woman falls in love with her cousin, the son of a dispossessed Jacobite Highland lord of clan who has been raised and maintained by her father as his ward. Despite his poverty, Grigor is well-educated, good-looking, and in the king’s service when his cousin, Katie, declares her love for him. Grigor at first does not take her proposal seriously, but when she assures him of her sincerity, he eagerly agrees to marry her, although she urges him to keep quiet until she has figured out how to arrange things without the knowledge of her disapproving parents. Before they can meet the next day, however, Katie’s mother discovers their romance and warns the father, who follows them to their arranged tryst and confronts them both. Grigor apologizes for his behavior, but Katie bravely stands up to her father, declaring that she is not a “hog or a horse to be sold, Away to some num-skull that has nought but gold,” and that Grigor is the only one for her. The father seeks to break them up and Grigor is pressed into military service. The two lovers arrange to meet in secret and pledge their troth with rings, but then Grigor is shipped off to serve in America. He is known for his bravery and good behavior and is promoted before being slaughtered by Indians at Fort Niagara in July 30, 1859. His corpse is scalped and mutilated, including cutting off his hand that bore his betrothal ring. At this instant, his spectre appears to Katie in Scotland, who is frightened by the bloody apparition. He appears to her a second time the next day and this time explains his death to her. When she cries and tells all of this to her father, he thinks she is crazy and sends for doctors, but no medicine can cure her broken heart and she dies soon after, to the regret of both her parents. The song ends with a warning to all parents against keeping young lovers apart lest they lose their children altogether.
