Angus Fletcher

Summary

Angus Fletcher,  Bessy Bell and Mary Gray (1816)

“ I slyly stole some melting kisses,
⁠Frae the lassie o' the glen.
⁠O the birken, &c.
What bliss! to sit, and nane to fash us,
⁠In some sweet wee bow'ry den;
Or fondly stray amang the rashes,
⁠Wi' the lassie o' the glen.
⁠O the birken, &c.
But tho' I wander now unhappy,
⁠Far frae scenes we haunted then,
I'll ne'er forget the—bank sae grassy,
⁠Nor—the lassie o' the glen.
⁠O the birken, &c.
This work was published before January 1, 1929, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.
