Om^wEz:
think o' Don . aid
O
wha wad buy a silk - en gown, Wi'
iiili^liliii
a poor bro - ■ ken heart ; Or
what's to me a sil - ler gown, Gif
frae my love I part.
The mind whase every wish is pure,
Far dearer is t«> me ;
And e'er I'm forc'd to break my faith,
I'll lay rae down and die ;
For I hae pledged my virgin troth,
Brave Donald's fate to share ;
And he has gi'en to me his hearty
Wi' a* its virtues rare.
