EARLY RISÈN.

The aïr to gi'e your cheäks a hue

O' rwosy red, so feaïr to view,

Is what do sheäke the grass-bleädes gray

At breäk o' day, in mornèn dew;

Vor vo'k that will be rathe abrode,

Will meet wi' health upon their road.

But bidèn up till dead o' night,

When han's o' clocks do stan' upright,

By candle-light, do soon consume
