Dumbarton's BONNY DELL. There's ne'er a nook in a' the land, Victoria rules sae weel, There's naething half sae canty, grand, As blythe Dumbarton's dell; Ane you speer the reason why, The truth I'll fairly tell, A winsome lassock lives hard by Dumbarton's bonnie dell. Up by yon glen Loch Lomond laves Where bold M'Gregors dwell; And bogles dance o're heroe's graves, There lives Dumbarton's Belle. She's blest with every charm in life, And this I know full well? I'll ne'er be happy till my wife Is blythe Dumbarton's belle. Sold by JAMES LINDSAY, Printer and Wholesale Stationer, &c., King Street, (off Trongate,Glasgow.
