 THE

FRISKY SONGSTER.

O'er the Muir amang the Heather

NE morn in May, when fields were gay, (Serene and charming was the weather) chanc'd to roam some miles from home, Far o'er the muir amang the heather. O'er the muir amang the heather, O'er he muir amang the heather, ow heartsome 'tis to range the muirs, And brush the dew from blooming heather.

walk'd along, and humm'd a song; My heart was light as ony feather, When I chanc'd to meet a lovely lass, As wading barefoot through the heather O'er the muir, &c. e was the bonniest e'er I saw, I met that morn amang the heathers

er eyes so fine, more bright did shine, Than the most fair unclouded weathery fairer form did ne'er adorn A brighter scene amang the heather O'er the muir, &c.
