KPASTQRAl COME DT. 15
Her coats were kiltit, and did sweetly (haw
Her straight.bare legs that whyter were thansnaw.
Her cockernony snooded up fou sseek,
Her haffet-locks hang waving on her cheek ;
Her cheeks sae ruddy, and her Eyen sae clear j
And O ! her mouth's like ony hinny pear.
Neat, near she was, in bustine waistcoat clean5
As she came skiffing o'er the dewy green.
Blythsome, I cry'd, my bony Meg, come here,
I ferly wherefore ye're so soonasteer:
But I can guess, ye're gawn to gather dew :
She scour'd awa, and said, What's that to you?
Then fare ye weel, Meg-Darts, ande'en'sye like*.
I.careless cry'd, and lap in o'erthe dyke. .
I trow, when that she saw, within a crack,
She came wi:h a right thieveless errand back:
MHcaw'd me fii st — than bad me hound my dog,
To wearup three waft ewsftray'd on the bog.
I leugh ; and sae did she; then with great haste
I clasp'd my arms about her neckand waist j
About her yielding waist, and took a fouth
Of sweetest kisTes frae her glowing mouth.
While hard and fast I' held her in my grips,
My very saul cam lowpi-ng to my lips.
Sair sair she sset v?i' me 'tween ilka smack;
But weel I kend she meant nae as shespak.
Dear Roger, when your Jo puts on her gioom.
Do ye sae too, and never fash your thumb.
Seem to forlake her, soon she'll change her mood.-
Gae woo anither, and she'll gang clean wood.
SANG II. Tune, Fy gar rub her o'er with strac.
Dear Roger, if your Jenny geek,
And answer kindnesi with a sstgkt,
Seem unconcern'd nt her neglect..
Tor women in a man delight:
Hut them dessi/e who're soon deseat,
And vnth a simple sace give way
"Toa refulse-then be not biate,
Fuji} bauldly on, and win the day.
