( 5 )
But a sight of you is more to me,
than all the flow'rs in time Peggy;
Then all the flow'rs of Olify,
when they are in their prime Peggy:
The Highland hills are very high,
and O they're ill to climb Willy,
But I will go along with you,
I canna stay behind Willy.
Let ne'er your conscience you beguile,
or money you ensnare Willy,
But ever keep a single heart,
for that's true love and rare Willy.
Now Willy he has married her
and made her his own Peggy;
And they do live a happy life,
and she's a gallant Lady.
The Swain design’d for Love and Me.
ATtend ye nymphs while I impart,
The secret wishes of my heart;
And tell what swain, if one there be,
Whom Fate designs for Love and Me.
Let reason o'er his thoughts preside,
In honour all his actions guide;
Stedfast in virtue let him be,
The swain design'd for Love and Me.
Let solid sense inform his mind,
With pure good nature sweetly join'd;
Sure friend to modest merit be,
The swain design'd for Love and Me.
