Not illustrated. 1821 Excerpt: ...of each other? 'Tis the pleasing remembrance of youth, The endearments that love did bestow, The thoughts of past pleasure and truth, The best of all blessings below. These traces for ever will last, Which sickness nor time can remove For when youth and beauty are past, And age brings the winter of love, Vol. I.

Far ben thy dark green plantin's shade, The cushat croodles atn'rouslie; The mavis down thy bughted glade, Gars echo ring frae every tree. Thou bonnie, fyc. Awa, ye thoughtless, murd'ring gang...
