a thousand editions? Happy volumes! you are fecure; but I must yield, please the ladies, and take care of my fame

In hopes of this, fearless of coming age,

[nown'd,

I'l fmile through life; and when for rhyme re

I'll calmly quit the farce and giddy ftage,

And fleep beneath a flow'ry turf full sound,

AF

A lovely lass to a friar came

Ah, Chloris, cou'd I now but Git

As from a rock past all relief

Auld Rob Morris that wins in yon glen
As Sylvia in a forest lay

And I'll o'er the moor to Maggy

At Polwart on the green

As walking forth to view the plain

Ah! why thofe tears in Nelly's eyes
Ah! the fhepherd's mournful fate

As I went forth to view the spring

Adieu for a while, my native green plains
An I'll away to bonny Tweed-fide

Although I be but a country-lass

As early I walk'd on the first of sweet May

As I fat at my fpinning-wheel

Adieu the pleafing sports and plays

[blocks in formation]

As mufing I rang'd in a meadow alone
All you that would refine your blood
As down in the meadows I chanced to pass
A cobler there was, and he liv'd in a
As I am a friend

Ah! woes me, poor Willy cry'd
As tippling John was jogging on
As after noon, on fummer's day
Alexis, how artless a lover
A maid is like the golden ore
A fox may fteal your hens, Sir
As Dolly was milking of the cows

A woman's ware like china *
Affift your vot'ry, friendly Nine

By a murmuring stream a fair fhepherdefs lay
Blate Jonny faintly teld fair Jean his mind
Bright Cynthia's power divinely great

By fmooth winding Tay a fwain was reclining
Beneath a beech's grateful shade

By the delicious warmnefs of thy mouth
Beneath a green fhade I found a fair maid

Belly's beauties fhine fae bright
Blefs'd as th' immortal gods is he
Beauty from fancy takes its arms

Balow, my boy, lie ftill and fleep.
Bufk ye, bufk ye, my bonny bride
Blyth Jocky young and gay

Buk ye, bufk ye, my bonny bonny bride

Be wary, my Celia, when Celadon fues
Blefs'd as th' immortal gods is he

Care, away, gae thou frae me

Custom prevailing fo long amongst the great

Come, love, let's walk by yonder fpring

Come, lads, ne'er plague your heads
Can love be controll'd by advice
Celia now my heart hath broke
