Disasters a' would disappear;
Then begins the jub'lee year.
O hon, &c.



LET ME IN THIS AE NIGHT.

O lassie, art thou sleeping yet?
Or art thou wauken, I would wit?
For love has bound me hand and foot,
And I would fain be in, jo.
O let me in this ae night,
This ae, ae, ae night;
For pity's sake this ae night,
O rise and let me in, jo.

Out owre the moss, out owre the muir
(illegible text) came this dark and drearie hour,
And here I stand without the door,
Amid the pouring storm, jo.
O let me in, &c.

Thou hear'st the winter winds and weet
(illegible text)ae star blinks thro' the driving sleet;
Tak pity on my wearie feet,
And shield me frae the rain, jo.
O let me in, &c.
