(　100　) ACT SEDERUNT OF THE COURT OF SESSION.

—"O'er the Muir amang the Heather."

In Embro' town they've made a law, In Embro' at the Court o' Session, That standin' p——s are fautor's a', And guilty o' a high transgression.

Decreet o' the Court o' Session, Act Sederunt o' the Session, That standin' p——s are fautor's a', And guilty o' a high transgression.

And they've provided dungeons deep, Ilk lass has ane in her possession, Until the fautors wail and weep, There they shall lie for their transgression.

Decreet o' the Court o' Session, Act Sederunt o' the Session. The rogues in pouring tears shall weep, By Act Sederunt o' the Session.
