"I will not here abide;

"We cannot part; we ſtill are one"

FY LET US A' TO THE MEET'N.

Y let us a' to the meet'n,

for mony bra' lads will be there;

Explainin the wrangs of Great Britain,

and pointin them out to a hair.

There will be grivances ſhown

we never before kent about,

And there will be things ſet agoing,

will end in the Devil I doubt.

For there a' the members hae ſworn,

and pledg'd to each other their word,

That rather than want a reform,

they'll try it by fire, and by ſword.

And there will be Roſs cudgel player,

a fit man for fighting is he:

And there will he Donaldſon preacher,

the noble Burcan o' Dundee.

Fy let us, &c.

And there will be Geordy meal-maker,

wi' twa-three mair lads frae the north;

And there will be Haſtie the baker.

and Callender's ſon o' Craigforth:

And then will be Sillerſinitb Sawney,

now he's turn'd a dockter himſel,

And there will be ſome nae fae canny,

the friends o' the French and o' H—L.

Fy let us, &c.
