She's Fair and Fause.
She’s fair and fause that causes my smartI loo’d her meikle and lang;She’s broken her vow, she's broken my heart,And I may e‘en gae hang.⟨A⟩ coof cam in wi’ rowth o’ gear,And I hae tint my dearest dear;
But women are but warld’s gear,Sae let the Bonnie lass gang,
Whae’er ye be that woman love,To this be never blind,Nae ferlie ‘tis tho‘ fickle she prove,A woman is fickle by kind.O woman lovely, woman fair,An angel form’s fa’n to thy share,’Twad been o’er meikle to gien thee mair,I mean an angel mind.
