The Schotti.il Partner.

0, I danced with him the Schottish;
Twas the first time that we met;
He was such dashing creature,
With orbs as black as jet.
And he wore lovely diamond;
How it dashed into my eyes!
As he drew me closely to him
saw its wondrous size
o, at ball, and route and party,
Twas his schottish belle;
He said danced so charmingly,
And knew the step so well!
And we grew so very loving,
As we stood upon the floor,
That people said the schottish step
Would lead to Hymen's door!
But, though Ischottished every night,
reached not Hymen's dwelling;
The god must live long way of,
But where, there is no telling
And only think, one fatal night,
The ungrateful wicked Harry!
heard my schottish partner say
"Shell debut not to marry
She'll do to twirl in may dance,
She'll do for giddy pleasure;
She'll do to meet out Folly's glance
With folly's line and measure;
But she'll not do for sacred home,
A meek and gentle woman,
An angel in her purity,
But in her love a humanw
