THE LILY AND THE ROSE.

THE Lily and the Rose and the bonny leddy Moon,— I ha'e lo'ed them a' my days, I ha'e lo'ed them late and stme ; Should I lo'e them use mair noo my heart lo'es abate The bonny and the sweet, wee, true-hearted ane That wi' sense, and wi' wit, and wi' sweet, smiling face, Has cheered my darkest days, gi'en the brightest a new grace ?

Na! I lo'e her the mair, but wi' her late and sune, The Lily and the Rose and the bonny leddy Moon.
