�ROB ROY
MACGREGOR.
PAHDON now the bold outlaw,
Rob Roy Macgregor, O!
Grant him mercy, pentbs a',
Rob R^oy Macgregor, O I
Led your ftarids and hearts agree,
Let the Highland laddie free,
Mak' us sing wi' muckle glee,
Rob Roy Macgregor, 0 1
L0113 the state had doom'd his fa',
Rob Roy Macgregor, O!
Siill he spurned the hatefu' law,
Rob Roy Macgregor, O J
Scots can for their country die;
Ne'er for Britan's foes they flee,
A ' that's past forget—forgie
Rob Roy Macgregor, O!
Scotland's fear, and Scotland's prid«j
Rob Roy Macgregor, O!
Your award must now abide,
Rob Roy Macgregor, O!
Lang your favours hae been mij>c,
Favours I will ne'er resign—
Welcomc then for auld langsynt,
Rob Roy Margrcgor, OT
�M R S . F.'S D E L I G H T .
COMPOSED BY H E R
HUSBAND.
Some men they do delight in hound?
And some in hawks take pleasure,
Some do rejoice in war and wounds,
And thereby goiri great treasure.
Some men do love on sea to sail;
And some rejoice in riding;
Bat all their judgments do them fail—
O! no such joy as chiding.
When in the morn I ope my eyes,
T o entertain the day,
Before my husband e'en can rise,
I chide him—then I pray.
When I at table take my place,
Whatever be the meat,
I first do chide—and then say grace,
If so dispo&'d to eaU
Too fat, too lean, too hot, too cold,
I ever do complain.
Too raw, too roast, too young too old
Faults I will And or feign.
�4
Let it be flesh, or fowl or fish,
It never shall be said,
But I'll fi,nd fault with meat or dish,
With master, or with maid.
But when I go to bed at night,
I heartily do weep,
That I must part with my delight—
1 cannot scold and sleep.
However this doth mitigate,
And much abate my sorrow,
That though to-night it be too late,
I'll early scold to-morrow.
T H E H I G H L A N D LAD-DIE.
The Lawland lads think they are tine,
But O! they're vain and idly gaudy;
How much unlike the g r a c e d mein,
And manly looks of my Highland laddre.
O my bonny Highland laddie;
My handsome, charming Highland laddie,
May heaven still guard, and love reward,
The Lawland lass and her Highland laddie.
If I were free at will to choose
T o be the wealthiest Lawland lady,
�I'd tak young Donald without trews,
With bonnet blue and belted plaidw.
0 my boniiie, fyc.
Tlie brawest beau in burrows town,
In a' his airs with art made ready,
Compared to him, he's but a clown,
He's finer far in's tartan plaidie.
O my bonnicy fye.
O'er benty hills with him I'll run,
And leave my Lawland kin and daddit;
Frae winter's cauld, and simmer's sun,
He'll screen me with his Highland plakfce.
O my bonnicy Sfc.
A painted room, and silken bed,
May please a Lawiand laird and lady;
But I can kiss, and be as glad,
Behind a bush, in's Highland plaidie.
O my bonnie,
F*w compliments between us pass,
l e a ' him my dear Highland laddie;
And he ca'sme his Lawhind lass,
Syne rows me in beneath his plaidie.
0 my bo7uiie9 tyc.
Xac greater joy I'll e'er pretend,
Than that his love proves true and steady
�6
Like mine to him, which ne'er rhall end,
While Heav'n preserves ray Highland laddie.
0 my bonnie, fyc.
B I L L Y AND N A N C Y ' S
PARTING.
I T was on a Monday morning,
just at the break of day,
Our ship she slipt her cable
and we were bound to sea:
The wind blew from the south-east,
and from Greenock we were boond,
The streets they were all garnished,
with pretty maids all round.
There was a pretty sailor
all in his blooming years,
H e came unto his true love,
with bitter sighs and tears;
And he came unto his true love,
to let her understand,
That he was going to leave her
into some foreign land.
Why say you so dear Billy?
these words do break my heart,
Come let us now be married,
before that we do part:
�7
These fourteen weeks nni longer.
I'm going with child to the*,
So stay at home dear Billy,
be kind and marry me.
If I should stay at home, my dear,
another would take my place,
It would be a shame to mc, love,
besides a sad disgrace:
The King he's wanting men, my dear,
and I for one must go,
And for my very life, love,
I must not answer no.
Well, I'll cut off my yellow hair,
man's clothes I will put on,
And I will go along with you,
to be your waiting man:
Like a true and faithful servant,
I on my love will wait,
No storm nor danger will I fear,
let it be e'er so great.
Your waist it is too slender,
your fingers are too small,
I fear you will not answer me,
when I do on you call,
W4ien cannons they do rattle,
and bullets tbey do fly,
And silver trumpets sounding,
to drown the dreadful «ry.
�8
If I should meat a bonny lass,
that's merry, blythe and gay,
And on her set my fancy,
what would my Nancy say?
What would I say dear Willy,
but I would love her too,
It's I would step aside, my dear,
till she would pleasure you.
Why, say you so, de-ar Nancy!
you now do gain my heart;
Come, let us now be married,
'before thpt we do part.
This o u p l e now are married,
and sailing o'er the main,
All goodness may att?nd them,
till they return again.
T O G E T H E R L E T US RANGE,
Together let U9 range the fields,
Impearl'd with the morning dew,
Or view the fruit the vineyard yields,
Or the apples clustering bough.
There in close embowered shades,
Impervious to the noontide ray,
By tinkling rills—or rosy beds,
We'll love the sultry hours away.
FINIS.

T H E D U K E OF G O R D O N ' S
3 ,, ,v
DAUGHTERS.
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, lore with Captain Ogilvie,
And away with him went she.
Word came to the Dul^e 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,
M y servant shall ride on the grey,
And 1 11 go to bonny Aberdeen,
Fortwith to bring her away.
They were not a mile from Aberdeen,
A mile but only one,
Till he met with his two daughters,
But away was lady Jean.
0 where is your sister, maidens?
Where is your sister, now ;
0 where is your sister, maidens,
That she's not walking with you ?
�3
0 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 she did see Captain Ogilvie,
A training of his men,
O woe he to thee Captain Ogilvie !
An ill death thou shalt die,
For taking to thee my daughter,
High hanged shalt thou be.
The Duke of Gordon wrote a broad letter,
And sent it to the king,
T o cause him hang brave Captain Ogilvie,
If ere he caused hang any man.
N o I will not hang Captain Ogilvie,
For any offence that I see,
But 111 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.
�Lady Jean had not been married,
A year but only three,
Till she bad a babe in every arm,
And another on her knee.
0 but I ' m weary wandering!
0 but my fortune is bad,
It sets not the Duke of Gordon's daughter,
T o 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,
Cold was the frost and s n o w ;
Lady Jean's shoes were all torn.
N o farther could she go.
0 if I was in the glens of Foudlen,
Where hunting I have been,
1 could go to bonny castle Gordon,
Without either stockings or sheen.
>
0 hold your tongue bonny Jean Gordon,
0 hold your tongue m y dow ;
I've but one half-crown in the world,
I'll buy hose and shoon to you.
W h e n she came to bonny castle Gordon,
And coming over the green,
The Porter cried out, with a loud voice.
Yonder
*es our'lady Jean.
�5
Yon are welcome bonny Jeannie Gordon,
Y o u are dearly welcome to me ;
Y o u 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,
W h i c h caused a countermand.
Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie;
T o 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's my brother's land :
Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie,
You're the heir of Northumberland.
0 what does this mean ? says the .Captain,
Where's my brother's children three ?
0 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 ;
m go home and have my estate,
And then my dear Jeannie 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 fortune's advanced I hear,
N o stranger can come to m y gates,
That I do love so dear.
Sir, the last time I was at your gate
Y o u would not let me in ;
I am come for m y wife and children,
N o friendship else I claim.
Then she came tripping clown the stair,
W i t h the saut tear in her ee,
One babe she had at every foot,
Another upon her knee.
You're welcome, bonny Jean Gordon,
You're dearly welcome to me,
You're welcome, bonny Jean Gordon,
Countess of Northumberland to be.
Now the Captain came off with his lady,
A n d his sweet babies three,
Saying, I ' m as good blood by descent,
Though the great Duke of Gordon yon be.
THE
BREWER
LADDIE.
In Perth there lived a bonny lad,
A brewer to his trade 0 ,
A n d he has courted P e g g y R o y ,
A rum and handsome maid 0 .
Chorus—She's a rum one fal de reedle ay*do,
�He courted her for seven long years,
All for to gain her favour.
But there came a lad out of Edinburgh town,
And he swore that he would have her.
Wilt thou go along with me,
W i l t thou go my honey ?
And wilt thou go alongst with me,
A n d leave your own dear Johnnie ?
Yes, I'll go along with you,
And along with you I'll ride O,
Yes, I'll go along with you,
Altho' I'm the brewer's bride 0 ,
The brewer he came home at e'en,
Enquiring for his honey,
Her father he made this reply,
I never seen her since Monday.
Be it not or be it so,
Little it does grieve me,
I'm a young man free as you may see,
A n d a small thing will relieve me.
There is as good fish in the sea,
As ever yet was taken,
I'll cast my net once o'er again,
Altho' 1 am forsaken.
She's rambled up, she's rambled down,
She's rambled through Kirkaldy,
And many V the time she's rued the day
She forsaked her brewer laddie,
�8
She's rambled up, she's rambled down,
She's rambled through Perth town O,
And when she came to the brewer's door.
She was ashamed to gang in 0 !
He's drawn his course where e'er he's gane,
His country he has fled 0 !
He's not left a shift upon her back,
Nor a blanket on her bed 0 !
The brewer he set up in Perth,
A n d often brewed strong ale 0 !
And he has courted a bonny las*,
And ta'en her to his sell 0 !
Ye lovers all where'er ye be,
B y me now take a warning,
And never slight your airi true love,
For fear you get a vvaur ane.
THE HERO M A Y
PERISH.
The hero may perish, his country to save,
And he lives in the records of fame ;
The sage may the dungeons of tyranny brave—
Ever honour'd and blest be his n a m e !
But virtue that silently toils or expires,
No wreath for the brow to entwine:
That asks but a smile—but a fond sigh requires
0 woman! that virtua is thine.

THE DRUNKEN EXCISEMAN.
1 KNOW that JQWg
lii^ to h^oo* a n$w song
Of something that's funny and not very long.
It is of an Exciseman the truth I will tell,
Who thought that one night he was going to hell.
Fal de lal, &c.
One night he went out to look for his prey;
He did meet with some smugglers, as I heard them
say,
In tasting the liquo?s they were going to sell,
The Exciseman got drunk, the truth I will tell.
He got so intoxicated he fell to the ground,
And like a fat sow was forced to lie down,
Just nigh to a coal pit fe. Exciseman did lie,
When four or five colliers b j chance did come by.
They shouldered him up and hois$(l him away,
Like a pedlar's pack, without any delay ;
Into the bucket they handled him down,
This jollj Exciseman they got under ground.
/ft
�3
The Exciseman awakened with terrible fear,
Upstarted a collier, says what brought yon hear,
Indeed Mr Devil, I don't very well know,
But I think I am come to the regions below.
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've got here, Til 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 fot 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,
1 wish to get back, for to see light of day.
DONALD OF DUNDEE.
Young Donald is tbe blithest lad
That e'er made love to me,
Whene'er he's by my heart is glad,
He seems so gay and free;
�Then on his pipe he plays so sweet,
And in his plaid he looks so neat,
It cheers my heart at eye to meet
Young Donald of Dundee.
Whene'er I gang to yonder grove,
Young Sandy follows me.
And fain he wants to be my love
But ah ! it canna be.
T W mither frets both ear and late,
For me to wed this youth I hate,
There's nane need hope to gain young Kate
But Donald of Dundee.
When last we ranged the banks of Tay
The ring he showed to me,
And bade me name the bridal day,
Then happy would he be.
I ken the youth will aye prove kind,
Nae mair my mither will I mind,
Mess John to me shall quickly bind
Young Donald of Dundee.
WHEN I WAS YOUNG.
When I was young and in my prime,
My mother selt good ale;
I let the young men kiss my mouth,
But guarded well my tail
�5
Till on a day came the young laird,
And he spoke wondrous crouse,
He'd make me lady of all his land,
Likewise my mother's house.
I answered him right sharply,
I said that will not do,
But give me fifty pounds in hand
And I'll be at bour bow.
The money then was telled down,
In silver and bright gold,
And I gave him my maidenhead,
And thought it was well sold.
The next he was a weaver lad,
Had plenty of yarn and cloth,
I got from him fifteen guineas
Besides a web of cloth.
I put a cod upon my wame,
In purpose to enrage him;
I got ten guineas then from him,
And he begged I would discharge him.
The next he was a bold merchant lad,
Who had good horse and packs,
He swore that he would marry me
Whenever he came back.
I got from him thirteen guineas,
Besides ribbons and rings,
And gave him my maidenhead,
Which he took in exchange.
�6
I put a pack on every haunch,
A cod upon my wame.
And went unto the market place
My merchant for to find.
When he saw me he held out his paw,
And said, How do you do,
But weel I kent he did repent
For shame blushed on his brow.
I said I came to speak with him,
If once the fair was done;
So that very night he took the flight,
And travelled with the moon.
The next was a bold butcher lad,
Came past in search of veal,
And he was wanting to comply,
The flank and wame to fill.
He rifled me and touzled me,
And made me to comply,
I got no more but a veals head,
And a gill when he came by.
I was tochered now with lint and woo,
A purse well worth the picking,
I fancied a taylor lad,
To whom I had a liking.
I sent for him, he came to me,
And then I told to him,
If he'd agree to marry me
I had a house to hold him.
�The last of seven maidenheads,
So freely then I gave him;
'Twas far better than the rest,
For weel I wat it pleased him.
ROBIN HQOD.
A famous man is Robin Hood,
The English ballad-singers' joy ;
But Scotland has a thief as good,
She has her bold outlaw Rob Roy \
A dauntless heart MKJregor shows,
And wond'rous length and strength of arm
He long has quelled his Highland foes,
And kept his Highland friends from harm.
A famous man, &c.
• •
' .
His daring mood p?tftects him still,
For 'tis the robber's simple plan,
That they should take who have thq will,
. nd they should keep who flan.
A
And while Rob Roy is free to rove,
In summer's heat, and winter's snow, - A
The eagle he is lord above,
And bold Rob Roy is lord below.
A famous man, &c.
�8
LANGSYNE BESIDE THE WOODLAND
BURN.
L a n g s y n e beside the woodland burn,
Amang the broom sae yellow,
I lean'd me 'neath the milkwhite thorn,
On nature's mossy pillow;
Around my seat the flow'rs were strew'd,
That frae the wildwood I had pu'd,
To weave mysel' a simmer snood,
To pleasure my dear fellow.
I twin'd the woodbine round the rose,
Its richer hues to mellow,
Green sprigs of fragrant birk I chose,
To busk the sedge sae yellow.
The craw-flow'r blue, and meadow-pink,
I wove in primrose braided link,
But little, little did I think,
I should have wove the willow.
My bonnie lad was forced afar,
Toss'd on the raging billow,
Perhaps he's fa'n in bloody war,
Or wrecked on rocky shallow;
Yet, aye I hope for his return,
As round our wonted haunts I mourn,
And aften by the woodland burn,
I pu' the weeping willow.

Jenny $ Bawbee.
I met four chaps yon birks aniang,
W hanging lugs and faces lang :
I spier'd at neighbour Bauldy Strang,
What are these we see P
Quoth he, ilk cream-fac'd pawky chief
Thinks hansel* cunnin' as the deil,
And here they cam awa to steal
Jenny's bawbee.
The first, a captain to his trade,
Wi' ilUlin,d skull, and back weel clad,
March cl round the barn, and by the shed,
And papped on his knee.
Quoth he,, My goddess, nymph, and queen,
Your beauty's dazzl'd baith my een I
But deil a beauty he had seen
But Jenny's bawbee.
A Norland laird iieist trotted up,
Wi"1 bawsent naig, and siller whup!.
Cried, Here's my horse, lad, haud the grup,
Or tie him to a tree.
What's go wd to me? I've wall h o ' lan—
Bestow on ane o' worth your hari\
He thought to pay what he was awn
W? Jenny's bawbee.
A lawyer neist, wi" blethrin' gab,
And speeches wove like ony wab ;
O ilk ane's corn he took a dab,
And a1 for a fee ;
�A r counts he ©w\t through a' the town,
A hd tradesmen's ton &iies n ae m ai r cou 1 d drown
But now he \hoU'ght U clopt h is gown . . .
>
W"\ Jcnnv'* bawbee.
Quite spruce, jVi; t frae the wasl\in' tubs
A fool pain .nei>t, but life has,.rubs;
Foul were the the roi
and fir the dub$»
And *ai'r besniear'd was he:
He dan-e'd up/squintirf through a glass,
And gnnn'd, V l&ith, afobri rile lass;
l i e thought to win wi* f ront o' brass,
JennyV bawbee/
She bade the laird gate karne his wig,
11)e sodger not to strut so big,
The lawyer not to be a prig ;
The fool he cried, Tee hee !
J ken'd that I eouid never fail :
But she prinn'd the dishciout to his tail,
And coolM him
a water-pail,
And kept her bawbee.
Then Johnnie cam, a lad o" sense,
A ltho' he had na tnony pence ;
And took young- Jenny to the spence,
Wi* her to crack a wee.
Now Johnnii was a clever chie^
And here his suit he pressVisae we el,,
That Jenny's heart grew salt as jeel,
And she biiTd her bawbee.
Mary.
Will ye go to the Indies, my Mary,
And leave auid Scale's shore ?

Will ye go ta the Indie*, my Mary.
Across tlr Atlantic's roar?
0 sweet gVowsthe lime and the orange*
And the apple upon the pine,
But a the chaVms o' the Indies
Can ever e^ual thine.
1 h/i.e, swofii by the Heavens to my Mary,
I hge s wpri) by t lie II eaVens to be Vrue;
And sae mixy the Heavens forget me,
W hen I forget my vow !
O plight me your fait hp my .Mary,

And plight me your lily-white hand ;
O plight me your faith, my .Mary,
Bef6re I leave; Scbtia^s strand.
We hae plighted our troth, my Mary,
In mutual affection to join,
And curst be the qause that shall part lis !
The hour and the moment o* time !
The Br aw Fickle Wooer*
Last May a braw wooer came down the lang glen,
And sair wi' his love he did deave me;
I said there was naething I hated like men I
The deuce gae w f m to believe me, believe me,
The deuce gae wi'm to believe me.
Re spak o'1 the darts oy my bonnie black een,
And vow'd for my loye he was dying;
I said he might die when he liked, for
The Lord forgie me for lyings f o r c i n g ,
The Lord for^ie me f e r Wing J

A weel-stoeked mailen, himself for the laird.
And marriage, aff hand, was his proffers:
I never loot on that I ken'd it, or carcl,
But thought I might hae waur offers, waur offers,
But thought 1 might hae waur offers.
But what wad ye think ? In a fortnight or less,
The deil tak his taste to gang near her!
l i e up the lang loan to my black cousin Bess,
Guess ye how, the jade I I could bear her, could
bear her,
Guess ye how, the jade ! I could bear her.
But a' the neist week as I fretted wi' care,
I gaed to the tryste o* Dalgarnock,
And wha but my fine fickle lover was there,
I glowrd as I'd seen a warlock, a warlock,
I glowrM as I'd seen a warlock.
But owre my left shouther I gae him a blink,
Lest neebours might say I was saucy;
My wooer he caper'd as heM been in drink,
And vowrd I was his dear lassie, dear lassie,
And vow'd I was his dear lassie.
I spier'd for my cousin, fu ? eouthie and sweet,
Gin she had recovered her hearin\
And how her new shoon fit her auld shack I't feet,
But, heavens4 ho w he fell a sweann\ a swearinV ,
But, heavens ! how he fell a swearin'.

He begged for gttdesake ! I wad be his wife,
J
Or else 1 wad kill him vv'f sorrow:
a
So e'en to preserve tire poor body in life,
I think I maun wed him to-morrow, to morrow,
1 think I ~ maun wed him to-morrow.

The Landlady of France.
A landlady of France, she loved an officer, 'tis said,
And this officer he dearly loved her brandy, Oh !
Sighed she, I love this officer, although his nose
is red,
And his legs are what his regiment call bandy
Oh!
But when the bandy officer was ordered to the coast,
How she tore her lovely locks that looked so
sandy, Oh !
Adieu, my soul, says she, if you write pray pay
the post;
But, before we part, let's take a drop of brandy
Oh !
She filled him out a bumper, just before he left
the town,
And another for herself, so neat and handy, Oh!
So they kept their spirits up, by their pouring
spirits down,
For love is like the cholic, cured with brandy,
Oh!
Take a boUle on't says she, for your going into camp,
In your tent you know, my love, 'twill be the
dandy, Oh!
Your right, says he, my life, for a tent is very
damp,
And 'tis better with my tent to take some brandy,
Oh !
