KATHERINE OGIE.
As walking forth to view the plain,
Upon a morning early,
While May's sweet scent did cheer my brain,
From flowers which grew so rarely:
I chanc'd to meet a pretty maid,
She shin'd though it was foggie;
I ask'd her name: Sweet Sir, she said,
My name is Kath'rine Ogie.

I stood awhile, and did admire,
To see a nymph so stately;
So brisk an air there did appear
In this dear maid so neatly.
Such natural sweetness she display'd,
Like lilies in a bogie;
Diana's self was ne'er array'd
Like this same Kath'rine Ogie.

Thou flower of females, Beauty's queen,
Who sees thee, sure must prize thee;
Though thou art dress'd in robes but mean,
Yet these cannot disguise thee:
Thy handsome air, and graceful look,
Excel a clownish rogie;
Thou'rt match for laird, or lord, or duke,
My charming Kath'rine Ogie.

O were I but some shepherd swain,
To feed my flock beside thee,
