To enjoy their ain, and raise the shepherd's sang.

  _Rog._ Wha winna dance? wha will refuse to sing?
    What shepherd's whistle winna lilt the spring?

  _Baul._ I'm friends with Mause,--with very Madge I'm 'greed,
    Altho' they skelpit me when woodly fleid:
	I'm now fu' blyth, and frankly can forgive,
	To join and sing, "Lang may Sir William live."

  _Mad._ Lang may he live:--And, Bauldy, learn to steek
    Your gab a wee, and think before ye speak;
	And never ca' her auld that wants a man,
	Else ye may yet some witches' fingers ban.
	This day I'll wi' the youngest of ye rant,
	And brag for ay, that I was ca'd the aunt
	Of our young lady,--my dear bonny bairn!

  _Peg._ No other name I'll ever for you learn.--
    And, my good nurse, how shall I gratefu' be,
	For a' thy matchless kindness done for me?

  _Mause._ The flowing pleasures of this happy day
    Does fully all I can require repay.

  _Sir Will._ To faithful Symon, and, kind Glaud, to you, }
    And to your heirs I give in endless feu,              }
	The mailens ye possess, as justly due,            }
	For acting like kind fathers to the pair,
	Who have enough besides, and these can spare.
	Mause, in my house in calmness close your days,
	With nought to do, but sing your Maker's praise.

  _Omnes._ The Lord of Heaven return your Honour's love,
    Confirm your joys, and a' your blessings roove.

  _Patie_, [_presenting Roger to Sir William._] Sir, here's my trusty
   friend, that always shar'd
    My bosom-secrets, ere I was a laird;
 	Glaud's daughter Janet (Jenny, thinkna shame)
	Rais'd, and maintains in him a lover's flame:
	Lang was he dumb, at last he spake, and won,
	And hopes to be our honest uncle's son:
	Be pleas'd to speak to Glaud for his consent,
	That nane may wear a face of discontent.

  _Sir Will._ My son's demand is fair,--
    Glaud, let me crave, That trusty
	Roger may your daughter have,
	With frank consent; and while he does remain
	Upon these fields, I make him chamberlain.

  _Glaud._ You crowd your bounties, Sir, what can we say, }
    But that we're dyvours that can ne'er repay?          }
	Whate'er your Honour wills, I shall obey.         }

	And still our master's right your business make.
	Please him, be faithful, and this auld gray head
	Shall nod with quietness down amang the dead.

  _Rog._ I ne'er was good a speaking a' my days,
    Or ever loo'd to make o'er great a fraise:
	But for my master, father and my wife,
	I will employ the cares of all my life.

  _Sir Will._ My friends, I'm satisfied you'll all behave,
    Each in his station, as I'd wish or crave.
	Be ever vertuous, soon or late you'll find
	Reward, and satisfaction to your mind.
	The maze of life sometimes looks dark and wild;
	And oft when hopes are highest, we're beguil'd:
	Aft, when we stand on brinks of dark despair,    }
	Some happy turn with joy dispells our care.      }
	Now all's at rights, who sings best let me hear. }

  _Peg._ When you demand, I readiest should obey:
    I'll sing you ane, the newest that I ha'e.

SANG XXI.--_Tune_, Corn-riggs are bonny.

    _My_ Patie _is a lover gay,
      His mind is never muddy;
    His breath is sweeter than new hay,
      His face is fair and ruddy:
    His shape is handsome, middle size;
      He's comely in his wauking:
    The shining of his een surprise;
      'Tis Heaven to hear him tawking._

    _Last night I met him on a bawk,
      Where yellow corn was growing,
    There mony a kindly word he spake,
      That set my heart a glowing.
    He kiss'd, and vow'd he wad be mine,
      And loo'd me best of ony,
    That gars me like to sing since syne,
      O corn-riggs are bonny._

    _Let lasses of a silly mind
      Refuse what maist they're wanting;
    Since we for yielding were design'd,
      We chastly should be granting.
    Then I'll comply, and marry_ Pate,
      _And syne my cockernonny
    He's free to touzel air or late,
      Where corn-riggs are bonny._

    [_Exeunt omnes._

NOTES.

Page 5, line 11 from top; the reading in the text is:--

        "She fled as frae a shellycoat or kow."

    This is the reading in the 8vo and 4to editions of 1721; (and also
    in the 12mo edition of 1761;) where was published the _first
    scene_ of the Pastoral, as a separate poem, under the title of
    "Patie and Roger." But, in all the editions of the _Gentle
    Shepherd_ that we have seen, the reading stands thus:--

        "She fled as frae a shellycoated kow."

    We think the first reading is the true one; and that the second
    is, probably, a typographical error. We have come to this
    conclusion after an inquiry into the meaning of the words
    "Shellycoat" and "Kow." The definitions of these words, from the
    best authorities we know of, are subjoined; which will enable such
    of our readers as have any curiosity in the matter to judge for
    themselves.

    "_Shellycoat_, a spirit, who resides in the waters, and has given
    his name to many a rock and stone upon the Scottish coast, belongs
    also to the class of bogles. When he appeared, he seemed to be
    decked with marine productions, and in particular with _shells_,
    whose clattering announced his approach. From this circumstance he
    derived his name.--_Shellycoat_ must not be confounded with
    _Kelpy_, a water spirit also, but of a much more powerful and
    malignant nature."

      [_Scott's Minstrelsy_, vol. i., Introd. civ. cv.

    "_Shellycoat._ One of those frightful spectres the ignorant people
    are terrified at, and tell us strange stories of; that they are
    clothed with a coat of shells, which make a horrid rattling; that
    they'll be sure to destroy one, if he gets not a running water
    between him and it: it dares not meddle with a woman with child,
    &c."

      [_Ramsay's Poems._ vol. i., 4to edition, 1721.

    "_Kow_ or _Cow_" a hobgoblin; also, a scarecrow, a bugbear.
    _Cow-man_, the devil."

      [_Jamieson's Scottish Dictionary._

    "_Wirrikow_," the devil.

      [_Hogg's Mountain Bard._

    The above definitions of _Shellycoat._are very precise: that of
    _Kow_ is less so. Both are spirits, and frightful in character; yet
    apparently of distinct habits. Hence the _first_ of the readings
    given above,--the oldest and that adopted in the text--

      "She fled as frae a shellycoat or kow,"

    is quite natural and proper: the _second_ (though susceptible of
    explanation,) seems much less so.

At page 57, a variation from the text given in the present edition, is
found in nearly all the more modern editions: it is as follows:--

      "_Enter_ BAULDY [_singing_].

    SANG XVI.

    Jocky _said to_ Jenny, Jenny, _wilt thou do't?
    Ne'er a fit, quoth_ Jenny, _for my tocher-good;
    For my tocher-good, I winna marry thee:
    E'en's-ye-like, quoth,_ Jocky, _I can let you be._

    _Mause,_[59]  Well liltit, Bauldy, that's a dainty sang.

    [Footnote 59: In some editions, _Madge_.]

    _Bauldy,_ I'se gie ye't a', it's better than it's lang.

      _I have gowd and gear, I have land eneugh,
      I have sax good owsen ganging in a pleugh;
      Ganging in a pleugh, and linkan o'er the lee,
      And gin ye winna tak me, I can let ye be._

      _I have a good ha' house, a barn, and a byre;
      A peat-stack 'fore the door, will mak a ranting fire;
      I'll mak a ranting fire, and merry shall we be,
      And gin ye winna tak me, I can let ye be._

      Jenny _said to_ Jocky, _gin ye winna tell,
      Ye shall be the lad, I'll be the lass mysell;
      Ye're a bonny lad, and I'm a lassie free;
      Y'ere welcomer to tak me than to let me be._"

    In "Ramsay's Poems," published in London, by Millar, Rivington &
    Co., 2 vols. 12mo, 1761; (three years after the author's death;)
    there occur several variations from the text of the present
    edition. As the more important of these changes, with one
    exception, have been adopted in the edition edited by George
    Chalmers, published by Cadell & Co., London, 2 vols. 8vo, 1800;
    (usually considered the "best edition" of Ramsay's collected
    works;) and as they have been again adopted in the recent reprint
    of Cadell's edition by Fullarton & Co., London, 3 vols. 12mo,
    1850, it has been thought best to present them here in the form of
    notes. The following, therefore, are to be understood as the
    readings in the editions just referred to:--

Page 5, line 13 from bottom:--

      "'Till he yowl'd sair she strak the poor dumb tyke:"

    This is the reading in the 8vo and 4to editions of 1721, before
    referred to. In the 4to subscription edition of 1728, the author
    rejected the above reading, and substituted that given in the
    text. This would seem to be conclusive; and produces a
    considerable degree of suspicion as to the authority for the other
    alterations which we find in the editions of 1761 and 1800.

Page 11, line 4 from bottom:--

      "We soon will hear what a poor feightan life"

      [_Edition of_ 1800.

    The editions of 1761 and 1850 give the reading in the text.

Page 19, line 8 from top:--

      "To shine, or set in glory with Montrose."

Page 25, line 8 from bottom:--

    "_Bauldy._ Well vers'd in herbs and seasons of the moon,
    By skilfu' charms 'tis kend what ye have done."

      [_Edition of_ 1761.

    The editions of 1800 and 1850 give the reading in the text.

Page 27:--

      MAUSE _her lane_.

    "This fool imagines, as do mony sic,
    That I'm a witch in compact with _Auld Nick_,
    Because by education I was taught
    To speak and act aboon their common thought.
    Their gross mistake shall quickly now appear,
    Soon shall they ken what brought, what keeps me here.
    Now since the royal _Charles_, and right's restor'd,
    A shepherdess is daughter to a lord.
    The _bonny foundling_ that's brought up by _Glaud_,
    Wha has an uncle's care on her bestow'd,
    Her infant life I sav'd, when a false friend
    Bow'd to th' _Usurper_, and her death design'd,
    To establish him and his in all these plains
    That by right heritage to her pertains.
    She's now in her sweet bloom, has blood and charms
    Of too much value for a shepherd's arms:
    None knows't but me;--and if the morn were come,
    I'll tell them tales will gar them all sing dumb."

Page 29, line 7 from top:--

    "I darna stay,--ye joker, let me gang,
    Or swear ye'll never tempt to do me wrang."

Page 29, line 15 from top:--

      "Shall do thee wrang, I swear by all aboon."

Page 36, line 4 from top:--

    "No _Jaccacinths_ or _Eglantines_ appear.
    Here fail'd and broke's the rising ample shade,
    Where _peach_ and _nect'rine_ trees their branches spread,
    Basking in rays, and early did produce
    Fruit fair to view, delightful in the use;
    All round in gaps, the walls in ruin lie,
    And from what stands the wither'd branches fly."

Page 47, line 10 from bottom:--

      "With equal joy my safter heart does yield,
      To own thy well-try'd love has won the field."

Page 62, top line:--

      "But love rebels against all bounding laws;
      Fixt in my soul the shepherdess excells,"

Page 63, line 15 from bottom:--

    "Fine claiths, saft beds, sweet houses, sparkling wine,
    Rich fare, and witty friends, whene'er ye dine,
    Submissive servants, honour, wealth and ease,"

Page 64, line 14 from bottom:--

      "_Roger._ And proud of being your secretary, I
      To wyle it frae me a' the deels defy."

Page 67, line 10 from bottom:--

      "Dream thro' that night, 'till my day-star appear;"

Page 70, line 5 from bottom:--

      "_Peggy._ Were ilka hair that appertains to me
      Worth an estate, they all belong to thee:
      My sheers are ready, take what you demand,
      And aught what love with virtue may command.
      _Patie._ Nae mair I'll ask; but since we've little time,"

Page 72, line 9 from top:--

      "What want ye, Bauldy, at this [early silent] hour,
      When nature nods beneath the drowsy pow'r:"

Page 73, line 8 from bottom:--

      "Lows'd down my breeks, while I like a great fool,"

      [_Not in edition of 1850._

Page 82, line 12 from bottom:--

      "_Patie._ Good nurse, dispatch thy story wing'd with blisses,
      That I may give my cusin fifty kisses."

    Besides the above, there occur, in the edition of 1761, about 50
    _verbal_ alterations, additions, and omissions; and about 75 in
    the edition of 1800. In the edition of 1850 there are fewer
    changes, it having been partially corrected, probably from the 8vo
    edition of 1808. These verbal changes are rarely, if ever,
    improvements; frequently of little consequence, and sometimes they
    appear silly; for instance, towards the end of the Pastoral there
    is substituted, in two or three instances, Archbald instead of
    Bauldy! We have not, therefore, thought it worth while to note
    them here. We rather think that our readers, generally, will not
    consider the readings above given, as improvements on those in the
    text.
