Dated from the Scottish Book Trade Index.

BUXOM BONNY WILLIE.

When fragrant bloom of yellow broom,
delights our lads and lasses,
O'er yellow broom in beauty's bloom,
my will all lads surpasses;

Wi' Willy then I'll o'er the braes,
I'll o'er the braes wi' Willy;
Wi Willy then I'll o'er the braes,
I'll owre the braes wil Willy.

From morn to eve I'll sing the praise,
of buxom bonny Willy,
Willy, Willy, Willy, Willy:
From morn to eve I'll sing the praise,
Of buxom bonny Willy.

Redlin'd by Tay at noon-tide day,
we'll pu' the daisy pretty,
The live-lang day we'll kiss and play,
or sing some loving ditty.
W. Willy then, &c.

Now blythe and gay at setting day,
gif mither dinna hinder,
I'll sing and play wi' Willy gay,
for we twa ne'er shall sinder.
Wi' Willy then, &c.
