THE DISAPPOINTED LOVER.
As Autumn sun had sunk full low,
Behind Benlomond hill
And Ardoch brown came rowing down
Wi' speed might ca'd a mill.
That night met two resolved to woo,
Upon a bank so green
And watch the two I then did do,
Behind a bush unseen.
He made her vow, on the broom knowe,
That night to let him in
And by a' gude he swore he would
Mak neither noise nor din.
He kiss'd the lass then on the grass,
And prais'd her bonny een;
But aft she said I am afraid
This night you will be seen.
So off I went for I was bent,
That night him to undo.
And kiss this maid in her own bed,
And bar her love out too
