“ UNFORTUNATE MISS BAILEY.
A Captain, bold, in Halifax, that dwelt in country quarters,
Seduced a maid who hang'd herself one morning, in her garters;
His wicked conscience smited him; he lost his stomach daily;
He took to dringing ratifa, and thought upon Miss Bailey. ”

“ I‘ll mourn till life is over.
And brave Sir Neil how art thou fall‘n,
and wither‘d in thy blossom!
No more I‘ll love the treacherous man,
that pierc‘d my hero's bosom.
A kind and tender heart was thine,
thy friendship was abused,
A braver man ne'er fac‘d a foe,
had thou been fairly used.
For thee a maid I'll live and die,
Glengyle shall ne‘er epouse me,
And for the space of seven long years
the dowy black shall clothe me.
