Страница 487 - But hark ! a rap comes gently to the door ! Jenny, wha kens the meaning o' the same, Tells how a neebor lad cam o'er the moor, To do some errands, and convoy her name. The wily mother sees the conscious flame Sparkle in Jenny's e'e, and flush her cheek ; ] With heart-struck anxious care, enquires his name, While Jenny
Страница 493 - life and mettle in their heels. A winnock-bunker in the east, There sat auld Nick, in shape o' beast ; A towzie tyke, black, grim, and large, To gie them music was his charge : He screw'd the pipes and gart them skirl, Till roof and rafters a
