Come forth O scribes
Come forth O scribes of Scotland!,

Come forth such worthy band!

Come forth with such a' plenty,

The heratige of a land.

Though each effort individual

seem not such a greatertask

in present purpose so combined

they add up very fast.

Come forth O scribes of Scotland!, &c.

First, from such pages that are old,

Transcript what therein is hold;

Mark word each all as be it writ,

so page it is complete.

Come forth O scribes of Scotland!, &c.

Now second come others, checking o'er the work

So that of mistakes made, ne'er be any talk

Each line be so just corrected,

so for time be stood.

Come forth O scribes of Scotland!, &c.

Thirdly, such a' pages, now be recombined

and thus as one work presented fully lined.

Then it is listed, with doubts a' fled

and so by public read.

Come forth O scribes of Scotland!, &c.

Come not close, my lady
Come not close, me my lady,

come not close to me,

For brighter a' days are a wantin,

when you could e'er embrace to me.

Foul mist is in the airing,

and fever within it's air

Shutter yoursel' my lady,

For never upon you should this be.

Come not close, &c.

Within your own dwellin'

Keep yoursel' so well secure.

Protect your health my lady,

and lives of your family.

Come not close, &c.

Guard well now your father,

for aged he and mother be;

For fate may overcome them;

if partaketh foul mist do thee.

Come not close, &c.

Hold firm shutter'd my lady,

We a' shall see sun again,

But until e'er that embracen,

Come not close to me.

The Bogle o' the cards..
Now I write so you may ken

And to others this missive sen'

In Edinburgh a house of books

Through which the learned looks

And amongst the books an index card'd there

of that held in that houses care.

And amongst the books and card lurk'd there

A bogle O' the cards.

It was in some tewntieh year now bare,

To with public, the books decided share,

The house in keeping with it's goal

Posted up many stories tol'

And mongst tales unatural given.

Of w'ere the came or be written.

But sensing now a chance came forth

A bogle O' the cards

The bogle knew well the prank to play

to make the cards reading astray

Bogle'd moved from card to card

And jumped the details twixt em hard.

And so one card for a book thus seen

altered by, for 'nother work umpteen

A bogle O' the cards.

Oh what distress! this could cause

And unwary scholar to the tawse.

But this scribe of said bogle ken

moved cards back ere they should have been

And knowing still wrote this account

So other knowing that there be no more about

A bogle O' the cards.

"Rumors"
VERSE: I follow my feeds close-ly And people follow me? We're just as close As we can be And just because We pasionately care Whatever we hear We share!

CHORUSES: I heard it from Angus He heard it from Jim

We all agree it must have been Louis who re-tweeted it to him claims he heard it from Harry, who was following Marie And everybody "knows" that Marie doesn't post conspiracy

Giles heard it from Daphne She heard it from Joan Who picked it up on some obscure forum, with a varied tone, Pierre messaged it to Sheila, who must have posted there He got it from Francois and Jacques, aha! --- Lucky Pierre!

Max heard it from Edith A constant "content" spring She got it from her Father, who tells her everything She then gave it to Daniel, whose channel has it now Our dentist even heard it, and we're still Wondering how!

But I heard it from Agnes Or maybe it was Sue Or Millie or Billie or Gillie or Willie, it doesn't matter where It might have been on Facebook,Reddit, 4chan does it matter if it's not true? And if you will be my "friend", then I might Mind you, I said "might" {Dramatic pause, looks around nervously, as if watching for people..) Disclose it all to you!
