The Willoughby WHIM. A Scotch Song. In a DIALOGUE between two Sisters.


Molly. OH Jenny, Jenny, where hast thou been?
            Father and Mother are seeking for thee,
          You have been ranting, playing the Wanton,
            Keeping of Jockey Company.

Jenny. Oh Molly, I've been to hear Mill clack,
            And grind Grist for the Family,
          Full as it went I've brought home my Sack,
            For the Miller has tooken his Toll of me.

Molly. You hang your Smickets abroad to bleach,
            When that was done, where could you be?
Jenny. I slipt down in the quickset Hedge,
            And Jockey the Loon fell after me.

Molly. My Father you told you'd go to Kirk,
            When Prayers were done, where could you be?
Jenny. Taking a Kiss of the Parson and Clerk,
            And of other young Laddys some two or three.

Molly. Oh Jenny, Jenny, what wilt thou do,
            If Belly should swell, where wilt thou be?
Jenny. Look to your self for Jockey is true,
            And whilst Clapper goes will take care of me.
