JACOBITE SONGS. 303
Who sent him sic a letter,
He'll pay them in a ditty.
Then up wi' a' Dissenters,
Up wi' them in a cart ;
And up wi' him that ventures
His majesty to thwart.
But now great York is come.
Whom Heaven still be with ;
You'll find, both all and some,
'Twas ill to show your teeth.
Then up wi' every Koundhead,
And every factious brother ;
Your luck is now confounded.
You a' maun up thegither.

Her nain seF tell te strangest story
Tat e'er was heard py Whig or Tory,
She strange peyond expressions ;
More sights pe nowhere to pe seen
In any land (Cot save te queen !)
As pe at quarter sessions.

Tern would te gibbet quite disgrace ;
What pity she should want tem !
But how te deol tey comed tere.
Her nain sel' shall in prief declare.
And how her did recant tem.
Up stairs she went, tat were as proad,
And tirty too, as Hieland road
Or any street of city :
Her nain sel' to te shentles said,

She tink, te more te pity.
When her was up, she did discern
A shamber pigger tan a parn,
Where many folks did stand :
Who sent him sic a letter,
He'll pay them in a ditty.
Then up wi' a' Dissenters,
Up wi' them in a cart ;
And up wi' him that ventures
His majesty to thwart.
But now great York is come.
