Song 4. The Lads of Dunse.

Complying denying
now free & now coy
Alluring & curing
Loves pain with it(s) Joy
with frowns or with smiles that kindle a fire
is a Lass that each Temper & age must admire
her Eye darts its glances
our heart feels its Ray
her power advances
as ours ebbs away
from charms so strong ther's none can retreat
for do what she will she is every way sweet
