[344:A] Scott's Minstrelsy, vol. ii. p. 221, 222.
[346:A] The powers of description which Burns has evinced in one of the stanzas, while relating the effects of this spell, are truly great:—
"A wanton widow Leezie was
As canty as a kittlen;
But och! that night, among the shaws,

An' owre the hill gaed scrievin,
Where three lairds lands met at a burn,
To dip her left sark-sleeve in,
