SONG.
We'll a* to Kelso ger k .
AN I'll awa to bonny Tweed fide,
And fee my deary come throw,
And he fall be mine,
Gif fae he incline,
For I hate to lead apes below.
While young and fair,
HI make it my care,
To fecure my fell in a jo ;
I'm no fie a fool
To let my blood cool,
And fyne gae lead apes below.
Few words, bonny lad^
Will eithly perfuade,
Tho''bluftung, I daftly fay no,
Gae on with your flrain 3
And doubt not to gain,
For I hate to lead apes below.
Unry'd to a man,
Do what e'er we can ?
We never can thrive or dow :
Then I will do well,
Do better wha will^
And let them lead apes below.
Our time is precious,
And Gods are gracious
That beauties upon us beftow 5
