No more asham’d to own her love,

Or speak her mind thus free,

“Gang down the burn, Davy, love,

And I will follow thee.”

Call Me Pet Names.

Call me pet names, dearest—call me a bird,

That flies to thy breast at one cherishing word;

That folds its wild wings there, ne’er thinking of flight,

That tenderly sings there, in loving delight.
