I saw, what gar’t my heart beat fast,

A licht frae oot it’s window blinkin’.

I keekit through, but nochte could see;

A claith was there, half drawn, half drappit;

But sure the licht was meen’t for me;—

Upon the glass I lichtly chappit.

An’ suen I heard the openin’ door;

An’ through it’s chink I saftly glidit;

But turnin’ on the lichted floor,

I saw I’d been sair, sair misguidit—
