Return him with laurels to my langing arms .
Syne frae all my care ye'll pleafantly free me,
When back to my wifhes my foger ye gie me.
O foon may his honours bloom fair on his brow,
As quickly they muft, if he get his due:
For in noble actions his courage is ready,
Which makes me delight in my foger-laddie.

Volumes 1-6 - Scots musical museum
DescriptionBy James Johnson. 6 volumes. Edinburgh : Printed & sold by Johnson & Co., 1787-1803. Burns contributed largely to the work, and Stephen Clarke prepared the arrangements of most of the airs. ["The volumes of the Musical museum, as originally published, were 'Humbly dedicated to the Catch Club, instituted at Edinburgh June 1771.' On the completion of the sixth and last volume, in 1803, Johnson substituted a new set of title-pages, dedicating the work 'To the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland.'"--Laing's pref., to 1839 ed., v. 1, p. ii, foot-note].
