SCOTIA'S THISTLE. PRICE ONE PENNY. Copies of this very popular song can always be had in the Poet's Box, All Kinds of Music supplied to order on moderate terms. TUNE-Original. Scotia's thistle guards the grave,
Where repose our dauntless brave;
Never yet the foot of slave
Hath trod the wilds of Scotia.
Free from tyrant's dark control,
Free as waves of ocean roll,
Free as thought of minstrel soul,
Still roam the sons of Scotia. Scotia's hills of hoary hue,
Heaven wraps in wreaths of blue,
Wat'ring with his dearest dew
The bonnie lochs of Scotia!
O'er each greensward skirted vale,
Guardian spirits lingering hail-
Many a minstrel's melting tale
Hath told of ancient Scotia. Sound, ye Hill-pipe-widely wake-
Sound by lea and lonely lake-
Never shall my love forsake
The bonnie wilds of Scotia.
Others o'er the ocean foam
Far to others' countries roam,
But for ever be my home
The hills and glens of Scotia, Songs sent to any part of the country on receipt of
