SANG V. How can I be fad on my Wedding day.
Sung by Peggy, p. 12.
HOW fhall I be fad when a husband I hae',
That has better fenfe than any of thae
Sour weak filly fellows, that fludy like fools
To fink their ain joy, and make their wives fnools.
The man who is prudent ne'er lightlies his wife, -
Or with dull reproaches encourages ftrifej
He praifes her virtues, and ne'er will abufe
Her for a fmall failing* but find an excufe.
SANG VI. Nanfy'jta the Green Wood gane.
Sung by Jenny, p. 15.
I Yield, dear laffie, you have won,
And there is nae denying,
That fare as light flows frae the fun,
Frae love proceeds complying ;
For a' that we can do or fay,
'Gainft love nae thinker heeds us,
They ken our bofoms lodge the fae,
That by the heart-ftrings leads us.
SANG VII. CauldKale In Aberdeen.
Sung by Glaud or Simon, p. 18.
CAULD be the rebel's call,
OpprefTors bafe and bloody,
I hope we'll fee them at the laft
Strung a' up in a woody.
Bleil be he of worth and fenfe, -
And ever high his ibition,
That bravely ftands in the defence
Of confidence, king and nation;
