Come like a cobler, Donald M'Gillavry, Come like a cobler, Donald M'Gillavry; Bore them, an' yerk them, an' lingel them cleverly Up wi' King James an' Donald M'Gillavry! Donald was mumpit wi' mirds and mockery, Come like the deevil, Donald M'Gillavry; Skelp them an' scadd them pruved sae unbritherly— Up wi' King James an' Donald M'Gillavry!

Our forefathers had cried down songs, which all men and women were strictly prohibited from singing, such as "O'er Boggie," and "The wee Cock Chicken," &c., because Auld Nick was a proficient at playing them on the pipes.

O'ER the ocean bounding, Though new skies me cover, Yet thou art still with me. When, at morn or even, Low I kneel to Heaven, Be my sins forgiven As my love shall be ! When my hopes are dearest, And my soul sincerest, Then I remember thee! Thee, my soul's sole pleasure, Thee, its dearest treasure, Life, health, all to me. All of land or ocean, All a world's commotion, Knits me the more to thee. When new passions move me, When I cease to love thee, May the heavens above me, Chasten my perfidy! Even in woe and cumber, Even in death's last slumber, I will remember thee! CHARLIE IS MY DARLING.

"TWAS on a Monday morning, Right early in the year, That Charlie came to our town, The Young Chevalier. An' Charlie is my darling, My darling, my darling, Charlie is my darling, The Young Chevalier. As Charlie he came up the gate, An' Charlie is my darling, &c. 3 Then ilka bonny lassie sang, As to the door she ran, Our king shall hae his ain again, An' Charlie is the man: For Charlie he's my darling, &c. Outower yon moory mountain, Of naething else our lasses sing But Charlie an' his men. An' Charlie he's my darling, &c. Our Highland hearts are true an' leal, An' glow without a stain; Our Highland swords are metal keen, An' Charlie he's our ain. An' Charlie he's my darling, My darling, my darling; Charlie he's my darling, |
