An' wimples roun' the green moss-stane,

An' mourns. I kenna why, wi' a ceaseless mane.

Jeanie, come; thy days o' play

Wi' autumn-tide shall pass away;

Sune shall these scenes, in darkness cast,

Be ravaged wild by the wild winter blast.

Though to thee a spring shall rise,

An' scenes as fair salute thine eyes;

An' though, through many a cludless day,

My winsome Jean shall be heartsome and gay;
