250. Song—She's Fair and Fause

 SHE’S fair and fause that causes my smart,
 I lo’ed her meikle and lang;
She’s broken her vow, she’s broken my heart,
 And I may e’en gae hang.

A coof cam in wi’ routh o’ gear,
And I hae tint my dearest dear;
But Woman is but warld’s gear,
 Sae let the bonie lass gang.



Whae’er ye be that woman love,
 To this be never blind;
Nae ferlie ’tis tho’ fickle she prove,
 A woman has’t by kind.

O Woman lovely, Woman fair!
An angel form’s faun to thy share,
’Twad been o’er meikle to gi’en thee mair—
 I mean an angel mind.
