Folk ballads pass down our country's heritage

   Amang the Trees - - Amang the trees, where humming bees - At buds and flowers were hinging, O, - Auld Caledon drew out her drone, - And to her pipe was singing, O. - 'Twas Pibroch, Sang, Strathpeys, and Reels, - She dirl'd them aff fu' clearly, O, - When there cam a yell o' foreign squeels, - That dang her tapsalteerie, O! 2. Their capon craws an' quer 'ha, ha's,' - - hey made our lugs grow eerie, O - The hungry bike did scrape and pike, - Till we were wae and weary, O. - But a royal ghaist, wha ance was cas'd - A prisoner aughteen year awa, - He fir'd a Fiddler in the North, - That dang them tapsalteerie, O!

The manner of the conveyance of sounds, which is as it were the basis of music, is unintelligible. For what can be more strange, than that the rubbing of a little Hair and Cat-gut together, should make such a mighty alteration in a Man that sits at a distance? ~ Jeremy Collier
