Blthe Hae I been On Yn Hill
blythe hae i been on yon hill tuhe quaker's wife.” blythe hae i been on yon hill, as the lambs before me; careless ilka thought and free, as the breeze flew o'er me; now nae langer sport and play, mirth or sang please me; lesley is sae fair and coy, care and anguish seize me. heavy, heavy is the task, hopeless love declaring; trembling, i dow nocht but glow'r, sighing, dumb despairing! if she winna ease the thraws in my bosom swelling, underh the grass-green sod, soon maun be my dwelling.
