Poems on Several Occasions from 1793 to 1816/Song (Ye’re no sae vera kind, my lad)

SONG.

Ye’re no sae vera kind, my lad,
As bygane days ye’ve been;
Your tryst wi’ me ye didna haud,
Beside thon burn the streen.
Whan first ye bade me to the glen,
To tell the luve ye bore me,
I mind fu’ weel, my lad, that then,
Ye cam a while afore me.
