F

Arweel bonny Wully Craig,

Farweel to au thy broken Vows to me;

Thou wast a lovely Lad,

When on the Grass thou tempted'st me:
Full oft have I dry'd mine Eyn,

When by my seln to Milking I have gean;
Oft have I gist the Green,

Where Wully vow'd to be my Swain.

Sea

Sea neat was my conny Lad,

With new Russet Shoon, and Holland Band

But now he's won his way,

With Maiden-head, and Leve and au : His Locks were sea finely seam'd

And shone as bright as any in the Land;

But now he's won his way,

With Maided-head, and Leve and au.

Ise ene thraw away my Skeel,

And gang nea mere to yonder fatal Brow; Where I was pleas'd sea weel,

But now I feel meer ner others do:

He took me by the wulling Hand,

;

And vow'd to Hea'n how he wad constant be;

When levingly we laid

Under the shade of the Wullow-tree.

But ah! when the Loon had deun,

He nothing more of Love cou'd shew ;

But now he's won his way,

VVith Maiden-head, and Leve and au : My VVeam now begins to fill,

And seun the bonny Bird will crow : Tho' he was won his way,

VVith Maiden-head, and Leve and au.

E Dick went forth

Brother Dick and I went forth into the Barn;

To get our selves a heat,

By Thrashing of the Wheat,

From the Stack, from the Stack, from the Stack, the

Stack:

The Straws they flew about,

And the Flails they kept a rout,

With a Thwack, Thwack, Thwack, Thwack, Thwack.

Margery

Margery came in then with an Earthen Pot,
Full of Pudding that was piping hot;

I caught her by the Neck fast,
And thank'd her for my Breakfast,
With a Smack, &c.

Then up went her Tail,

And down went the Flail,

With a Thwack, &c.

Dick Threshing on, cry'd out fie for shame,
Must I beat the Bush while you catch the Game;
Sow your wild Oats,

And mind not her wild Notes,

Of alack, &c.

Faith I did the Jobb,

While the Flail bore a bob,

With a Thwack, &c.

She shook off the Straws and did nothing ail,
Swearing there was no defence against a Flail,
But quietly lay still,

And bid me fill, fill, fill,

Her Sack, &c.

But 'twas all in vain,
For I had spilt my Grain,
With a Thwack, &c.
