Kprightly as a lightsome fairy, Charming goddeas of the dairy ; Maideu with tbe milking pail, Listen to thy lover's wail : Whilc with true love I am burníng, You're the happy day a churning! Oh! it sometimefi makes me ghudder To suRpect you [ove an udder! After giving me your word, After all that has o'curd, To keep faith you will not fail, Maiden with the milking pail! But I Rwear by my dejection. By the cream of her complexion, By the san in heaven glowing, By the kine in meadows lowing, By the gentle morning zephyr, That no other one shall heifer. 1 ill have no maiden bntter. And 111 keep her when I've got her; Yes, Til win her, come what may, Where there's will, there íb a whey ! - Somerville Journal.
