“ The lark may forget to rise in the morning,
the spring may forget to revive on the lea,
But never will I while my senses govern me,
forget to be kind to the lass o’ Glanshee.
O let me alone, for I am sure I would blunder,
and set a’ the gentry a laughing at me
They’re book-taught in manners baith auld and
young o’ them.
but we ken little o' that in the hills o' Glenshee.
They would lay look ye at him wi’ his Highland
lady,
set up for a sale in a window so high.
Roll'd up like a witch in a hamely spun plaidie,
and pointing towards the lass o' Glenshee. ”

“ That her honour great may gain estate,
And always rise in fame.
