THE OLIO.

The following song was sung at an en-
tertainment, held in Liverpool in Decem-
Der last, on the anniversary of ST. An
drew, by the North Briton Society.
Again St. Andrews day is come,
Unfurl your banners, beat the drum,
Let a. your Highland bagpipes bum,
St. Andrews come frae Scotland.
Put on your tartan Philibeg,
And dinna heed the cauid fig;
Your naked hough and brawny leg
Meier minded cauld in Scotland.
When Abercromby held command,
And, fighting, fell ON Egypt's strand,
Rc bravely bore the burnin' sand,
And fought like sons OF Scotland.
Put Oh your tartan philibeg, &c.
The ruthless foe, on bluidy wark
Intent, dealt death to many Turk,
But found mair metal in the dirk
o. Highland lads frae Scotland.
Put on your tartan philibeg, &c.
Your coun'ry's savior wore the plaid,
And often barred his battle blade,
And many a foeman lowIy laid
Upon the mairs o Scotland.
Put onyour tartan philibeg, &c.
Let Caledonians mark the flame
That animated ance his frame;
That soul, nae tyrant e'cr could tame.
Could weep for poor auId Scotland.
Put on your tartan philibeg, sc.
Then blush nae, should the startin' tear
Drop for the man We a. revere,
For Wallace is name that's dear
To ilkas son O. Scotland.
Put on your tartan philibeg, &c.
Then let us a. with heart and hand,
Still aid our lov'd, our native land,
I'LL wisdom ilka mind expand
That breathes the air o. Scotland.
Put on your tartan philibeg, &c.
