MARY HAMILTON—Q
[_]
Letters from and to Charles Kirkpatrick Sharpe, ed. Allardyce, 1888, II, 272, in a letter from Sharpe to W. Scott [1823].
1
The Duke of York was my father,My mother a lady free,
Myself a dainty damosell,
Queen Marie sent for me.
2
The queen's meat it was sae sweet,Her cleiding was sae rare,
It gart me grien for sweet Willie,
And I'll rue it evermair.
