My daddie looks sulky, my minnie looks sour.
They gfloom upon Jamii^ heeause he is puir:
Though I lo"e them as weel as a daughter should do,
They are no half sae dear to me, Jamie, as you,
He said, think na langf, lassie, tho" 1 i^anp awa".
For m come an" see thee in spite o" them a"
I sit on my creepie, an" spin at my wheel.
An" think on the laddie that lo'es me sae weel;
He had but ae saxpenee, he brak it in tMa,
An" he pa*e me the half o't when he ^aed awa".
Hut the simmer is eomin", cauld winter's awa",
Then haste ve back, Jamie, an" bide na awa'.
