# Shepherd's lament for the loss of his sweetheart/The Sailor's Return

A FAIR maid walking all in a garden, a brisk young sailor she chanc’d to spy; He stept up to her, thinking to have her, said he, Fair maid, can you fancy I?
You seem to me some man of honour, some man of honour you seem to me; How can you impose on a poor young woman, that is not fit your servant to be?
If you are not fit to be my servant, I’ve got a great regard for thee; I thought to marry you, make you my lady, for I’ve got servants to wait on thee.
⟨I⟩ have got a sweetheart all of my own, Sir, and seven long years since he's gone from me; And seven more I will wait for him, if he’s alive, he’ll return to me.
⟨I⟩f it be seven years since your love went from you, surely he’s either dead or drown’d.— ⟨I⟩f he is alive, I love him dearly; and if he’s dead, I can with him rest.
(illegible text) when he found that his Sally was faithful, it’s a pity that love should be cross’d,— ⟨I⟩ am your poor and single sailor, that oftentimes the wide ocean cross’d.
​If you be my poor and single sailor, shew me-the token I gave to thee; For seven years makes an alteration, since my true love has gone from me.
He pull’d his hand out of his bosom, his fingers being long and small; He shew’d the ring that was broke between them- no sooner she saw it, than down did fall.
He took her up into his arms, and gave her kisses, one, two, by three: I am your poor and single sailor, that’s just return’d to marry thee.
So, hand in hand, they went together unto the church without delay, Where there he marry’d his lovely Sally, and made her his lady gay.

THE SAILOR'S RETURN.
Behold, from many a hostile shore, And all the dangers of the man, Where billows mount, and tempests roar, Your faithful Tom returns; Returns, and with him brings a heart, That ne'er from Sally will depart.
After long toils and troubles past, How sweet to tread our native soil, With conquest to return at last, And deck our sweet hearts with the spoil, No one to beauty should pretend, But such as dare it's rights defend.
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/A War Game

Layout 2
​While we are talking of soldiers, we may as well give details of
A War Game.—Most boys are familiar with the game known as “Tiddloy-winks,” in which the object is to make small bone
Fig. 14.
counters hop into a cup by pressing their edges with a large bone counter.
These materials can be used for a very interesting war game, consisting of the siege of a fort. The fort is simply a front elevation, similar to that shown in Fig. 14. This is drawn out in pencil on a piece of stout cardboard (or fretwood) and coloured in with paints or crayons. The windows are then cut out; and the whole thing made to stand upright by the addition of two or three triangular supports (Fig. 15). These ​are hinged on to the back by means of strong tape or canvas, so that the whole thing can pack up flat.
Each player in turn places his small counters (generally six) anywhere in front of the fortress. He is now the attacking party, and his object is to shoot his counters through the different windows. If he succeeds in sending a counter through a window, then he “kills” that number of the enemy.
Fig. 15.
The winner may be either the person who secures the greatest number of “kills” in a certain number of attempts—twenty-four, for instance—or the person who first succeeds in scoring say 50 “kills.” Any shot missing the fort entirely—i.e. going right over or missing at the sides—is a wasted shot, and counts one off the player’s score.
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/Making Pictures with Matches and Models from Match Sticks

Layout 2
​Have you ever tried
Making Pictures with Matches?—This is a very interesting occupation, and one which will fully test your ingenuity and your patience. Instead of using lines drawn with a crayon to suggest a certain object, you replace these lines with match sticks, bent and straight, and so obtain nearly the same effect. You can start with the plain outline of some simple object such as a sailing boat or a truck or a house, and you can then proceed to more difficult shapes, learning how to suggest masses of shadow by placing match sticks closely together.
​In actual practice, you got a large sheet of brown paper, and move the matches about until the right position is obtained:
Fig. 19.
then you fix the matches to the paper one by one by means of a dab of glue. In time you will astonish everybody
Fig. 20.
(yourself included) by the case with which you can build up really intricate pictures. Specimens accurately done and ​tastefully mounted make very acceptable little presents (Fig. 19).
Deft fingers and a big fund of patience render it quite possible to construct
Models from Match Sticks, with the aid of just one or two accessories such as paper and glue. Placed side by side, and
Fig. 21.
glued to each other, and to a cardboard or paper foundation, matches (particularly the larger sort) give quite an impression of solidity—which you will notice if you refer to the picture of the cupboard given in Fig. 20. In this a cardboard foundation is made according to Fig. 21, and the matches cut to the correct lengths and glued into position. In making the foundation, draw out carefully as shown, cut through the plain lines, and scratch along the dotted lines. Then bend into ​shape, and secure by means of strips of gummed tape or paper.
To suggest the panel in the door, glue matches round the outside edges as shown, and leave the cardboard showing in the centre. If you want the door to open outwards, you will have to bevel the edges of the two matches where the cupboard bends, because, by the nature of the model, the hinge (that is, the cardboard itself) is on the inside.
In similar fashion you can make countless little objects—all varieties of dolls’ furniture and fittings, money boxes, trinket cases, &c. If the matches are stained with bright colours, and tastefully arranged, and the whole varnished, some splendid effects can be obtained.
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/Novel Match Striker

Layout 2
​Talking thus of matches leads us to the description of another model in connection with the same articles. This is a
Novel Match Striker.—Any article which is useful makes a desirable present, especially if it has about it a certain amount of novelty. For instance, a match holder makes a nice little gift, and is generally appreciated. If, however, it is of a type which the recipient has never seen, it will be doubly welcome.
One rather novel match holder and striker can be made in the following way. Obtain a funny picture—for preference, one that has a large figure in the foreground. Fig. 22 shows the type of picture we mean. Glue this on to a piece of stout cardboard. Suppose the picture shows a man’s head. Then let his beard act as the striker. To secure this, cut out a piece of fine sandpaper, exactly the shape of the man’s beard (or whatever it may be), and glue it into position on the picture. Then at the side glue on a little holder for the matches. This can be made of cardboard specially, or an ordinary match- ​box cover can have the bottom stopped, and be glued on. As far as possible this should be a part of the picture.
All sorts of pictures can be done in this fashion: dogs, with strikers on the tail; pigs, with strikers on the back; elephants; grotesque men, &c.
If you like you can glue the picture on to fretwood and cut
Fig. 22.
out the figure or a part of it, and arrange it, so that it will stand upright on a wooden base. This will tax your own ingenuity.
There is in every house one thing out of which the enterprising boy or girl can make any number of models and toys: that is the empty match box. Its shape and formation lend ​themselves to the construction of all sorts of things—houses, trams, dolls’ furniture, &c. &c.—the only other requisites being a sharp knife, a ruler, one or two pieces of cardboard (or better still, thin pine veneer), a number of large matches (or better still, match stales).
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/Railway Truck

Layout 2
​You can start with the simplest form of
Railway Truck, consisting merely of the inner part, or tray of a match box, with two match-stick axles glued across the bottom, and four cardboard wheels secured in position by means of “doll pins” (Fig. 23); and then you can proceed
Fig. 23.
to the most elaborate vehicles, bridges, buildings, furniture, machines, &c.
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/Tram Car

Layout 2
​To give an idea of the method, we show how to put together a small overhead
Tram Car.—In the first place you want two pieces of veneer or cardboard, measuring 11¼ by 4¾ in. and 11¼ by 5 in.—to act respectively as the lower and upper decks. The actual method of construction can best be understood by a careful study of Fig. 24. The lower deck rests on four cardboard wheels. These are fixed by means of doll pins to two wooden axles (match stales) glued right across the under side ​of the lower deck. On this the structure is built up with match boxes. Three covers are placed lengthways along each side and glued into position. Then above these come five match trays, which, when standing up, take up just the same space. These are glued into position, facing outwards, and projecting about 1 in. beyond the under covers.
Fig. 24.
Across the top of the two sides so formed is glued the second sheet of veneer or cardboard, 11¼ by 5 in., to form the upper deck. Five covers placed end to end exactly make up a side for this, and one at each end completes the superstructure. Two covers, placed end to end, make a suitable back and front for the lower deck, while two pieces of veneer, 3¾ by 4½ in., effectively close up the inside of the car.
The trolley pole is provided by a wooden skewer, glued to the lower deck, and passing through a hole in the centre ​of the upper. That completes the tram for all practical purposes. If you desire to make your model more elaborate, you can construct a cardboard or wooden stairway at each end, connecting the upper and lower decks; and you can replace the sheets of veneer at each end of the inside by properly constructed doorways; and so on.
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/Model Stores

Layout 2
Fig. 25.
Another excellent toy, constructed with match boxes—and one very much appreciated by little brothers and sisters—is the
Model Stores.—Once again this will be best understood by reference to the illustration (Fig. 25). The stores consist of a counter and a back fitment—the two mounted on a ​base board. For the counter, five complete match boxes should be glued side by side and then mounted on six empty covers. The trays of the five complete boxes should then be given handles to make them into drawers. For these handles nothing can beat a boot button. The small metal loop is pushed through a hole in the end of the tray, and then secured in position by means of a tiny wooden wedge pushed through the loop on the inside.
The back fitment consists of a block of twenty covers, five in a row, and four rows deep. These are glued into position. The two lower rows are deprived of their trays to make storage partitions, and the two upper are fitted with handles as above. Surmounting this block is an upper fitment consisting of five trays glued together so as to stand upright at the back of the block, leaving a free shelf in front (as in most grocers’ shops) Finally there is a row of three trays placed endways on the top of the five just mentioned.
For "playing at shops" a little model like this is invaluable.
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/A Red-Cross Cart and a Maxim Gun

Layout 2
​A Red-Cross Cart.—For this a large empty match tray is required. Across the under side a short length of match stale is glued, to act as an axle for the two wheels. These cau be cut from either veneer or cardboard. A good plan is to cut out a circle in fairly stiff cardboard, and glue a covering of veneer on each side; this adds to the appearance of the wheel and makes it stiffer. If veneer alone is used, two circles must be cut out for each wheel, and glued together with the grain at right angles. The wheels should be fixed in position with doll pins.
For the tilt a piece of veneer bent over and glued to the inner sides of the match box will do quite well. The red cross may be painted on, but will look considerably better if cut ​from some light red paper and stuck on. All that remains is to supply the shafts. For this two pieces of stale of the requisite length should be glued to the under side of the body of the cart. Fig. 26 shows the completed model.
Another military model, slightly more difficult to adjust, is
A Maxim Gun.—For this two wheels, each about 2½ in. across, must be constructed in the manner described above.
The body of the machine is easier to make than describe. Fig. 27 shows the under side. A small match box is taken
Fig. 26.
and along one long edge of the top a piece of stale is glued, projecting ¼ in. at each end. This stale is the axle. Two full-length stales are then glued so that they meet at the end furthest from the axle. To render these projecting pieces more stable, a triangular piece of veneer is glued across them at the place of meeting.
The two wheels are then fixed in position by means of doll pins. For the front of the machine a screen is required, and a piece of veneer or card is cut as shown in Fig. 28, and glued to the front edge of the match box. Through the hole in this screen will project the actual gun itself. For this a piece of ​wooden skewer or slender dowel will do. This can be attached to the top of the box by means of glue, and can be
Fig. 27.
wedged up into a horizontal position if found to slant too much.
Fig. 28.
A coat of dull grey paint will add greatly to the realistic appearance of this interesting little toy.
# Toy-Making at Home: How to Make a Hundred Toys from Odds and Ends/A Step Bridge

Layout 2
​Many other things can be made, too, for use when playing with toy soldiers. One such model is
A Step Bridge, as shown in Fig. 29. This is a very pretty little model, and one quite delightful to make. For it we require four 1¾ in. or 2¼ in. match boxes, a piece of cardboard or veneer, and some match stales.
The cardboard should be cut to the width of the match box that is, either 1¾ in. or 2¼ in., and to a length of 4½ in.
Fig. 29.
At each end of this should be glued the side of a match box. In this way the actual bridge itself is formed. The step is provided at each end by a match box, lying down, and glued to the standing box.
The remaining task is the cutting and fitting of the match stales to provide the railings—and this is the part requiring great care. Reference to the sketch will give a much better idea of the design than any amount of explanation. The stales will be cut to the following lengths: two at 4½ in., eight at 2½ in., and four at 2 in. You can finish off your model by ​pointing some of the stales; but this is not at all necessary if you have used a sharp knife and made clean cuts. If in fitting up the stales you find the glue is not sufficient, you can strengthen the important joints by use of doll pins.

QUEEN MARY'S LAMENTATION.
I sing and lament me in vain, these walls can but echo my moan, Alas; it increases my pain, when I think on the days that are gonе.
Through the gate of my prison I see, the birds as they wanton in air, My heart how it pants to be free, my looks they are wild with dispair.
Above, though opprest by my fate, I burn with contempt for my foes, Though fortune has alter'd my state, she ne'er can subdue me to those.
False woman, in ages to come, thy malice detested shall be, And when we are cold in the tomb, some heart will still sorrow for me.
Ye roofs where cold damps and dismay, with silence and solitude dwell, How comfortless passes the day? how sadly tolls the evening bell:
​The owls from the battlement cry, hollow winds seem to murmur around, O Mary! prepare thee to die, my blood it runs cold at the sound.
# Queen Mary's lamentation (1823)/The orange and blue

The ORANGE And BLUE.
IT was on Monday morning, as I was going to Mass, I had no mind of listing, until they did me press: Bad company enticed me to partake of a full flowing bowl, And the advance money they gave me, was a guinea and a crown.
O! my dearest dear he is listed, and ta'en a white cockade, O! he is a clever fellow, besides he's a roving blade.
Sure he is a clever fellow, and is gone to serve the King; My very heart is a bleeding all for the love of him.
It was on a monday morning, just by the break of day,
The Captain commanded the Leutenant, to march those men away. ​He march'd them all in rank and file, all on the Irish shore, Fare you well sweet Molly dear, if I never see you more.
He pull'd out his pocket-kerchief, and wip'd her christal eyes, He says, My dearest jewel, I'm sorry for your sighs. But if ever come back again, and all goodness spares my life, There is not a woman breathing, but you I'll make my wife.
My dear, I will convoy you, as far as sweet Straban,
My dearest, I'll convoy you as far as e'er I can, My hand I never will give to any man but you,
And now you're going to leave me for the Orange and the Blue.
He's gone, he's gone, and left me, behind him for to rove,
His name I'll carve on every tree, through Belanamurry grove, Please God that he return again and his consort make me,
I'll prove a faithful loving wife, until the day I die.

LORD GREGORY.
O Mirk, mirk is this midnight hour, And loud's the tempes't roar; A waefu', wanderer seeks thy tow'r, Lord Gregor, ope thy door.
An exile frae, her father's ha', And a' for loving thee;
At least some pity on me shaw, If love it may na be.
Lord Gregory mind'st thou not the grove By bonnie Irwine-side, Where first I own'd that virgin-love I lang, lang had denied.
How aften didst thou pledge and vow, Thou wad for ay be mine;
And thy fond heart, itsel' sae true, It ne'er mistrusted thine
Hard is thy heart, Lord Gregory, And flinty is thy breast Thou dart of heav'n that flashest by, O wilt thou give me rest!
Ye mustering thunders from above, Your willing victim see! But spare and pardon my fauεe love, His wrangs to heaven and me!

TAK 'YOUR AULD CLOKE ABOUT YE.
In winter when the rain rain'd cauld, And frost and snaw on ilka hill, And Boreas, wi' his blasts sae bauld, Was threat'ning a'our kye to kill; Then Bell, my wife, wha lo'es nae strife, She said to me right hastily,
Get up gudeman, save Cromie's life And tak’ your auld cloke about ye.
O Bell why dost thou flyte and scorn? Thou kens my cloke is very thin: It is sae bare and overworn, A cricket thereon canna rin;
Then I'll nae mair barrow nor lend, For I'll ance mair apparell'd be, To-morrow I'll to the town and spend And I'll hae a new cloke abont me.
My Cromie is an useful cow, And she is come of a good kin', Aft has she wat the bairns mou', And I am laith that she should tine; Get up, gudeman; it is fou time, The sun shines in the lift sae hie; Sloth never made a gracions end, Gae tak' your auld cloke about ye.
My cloke was once a gude grey cloke, When it was fitting for my wear; ​But now its scantly worth a groat, For I ha'e worn't this thretty year: Let's spend the gear that we hae won, We little ken the day we'll die: Then I'll be proud, since I hae sworn To hae a new cloke about me.
In days when our King Robert rang, His trows they coast but ha'f a crown, He said thy were a groat o'er dear, And ca'd the tailor thief and loan: He was a king that wore a crown, And thou'rt a man of laigh degree; 'Tis pride brings a' the kintra down, Sae tak’ thy auld cloke about thee.
Every land has its ain laugh, Ilk kind o' corn has its ain hool; I think the warld is a' run rang, When ilka wife her man wad rule; Do ye not see Rob, Jock, and Hab How they are girded gallantly, While I sit hurklin in the ase? I'll hae a new cloke about me.
Gudeman, I wat 'tis thretty years, Since we did ane anither ken; And we hae had between us twa, O lads and bonny lassies ten: Now, they are women grown and men, I wish and pray weel may they be; ​And if you prove a good husband, E'en tak' your auld cloke about ye.
Bell, my wife, she lo'es nae strife But she will guide me if she can;
And, to maintain an easy life, I aft maun yield, though I'm gudeman. Noughts to be won at woman's hand, Unless ye gi'e her a' the plea; Then I'll leave aff where I began, And tak' my auld cloke about me.
