VI Can you dount my love lassie
can you doubt my bonny Lassie
then yoursel have better lives
Thew will ye be my bride lassie

Jessie the Flower O Dumblane
I. The sun had gawn done oer yon lofty beulmond
and lef the red clouds to preside over the sea
when lonely I strayed in the calm summers agloaim
To muse on Sweet Jessie the flower. O Dumblane
II How sweet is the brier in its soft folding blossom
and sweet is the birk in its mantle of green
Yet Sweet and fairer and dear to this bosom
Lovely young Jessie the flower O Dumblane
III Shes modest as any and blythe as she's bonny
For guileless simplicity marks her its aim
and far be the villain divested of the feeling
would blight in its bloom the sweet flower O Dumblane
IV Sing on thow sweet maves thy hymn to the evening
Thought dear to the echoes of Calderwood Gleu
See dear to this bosom see artless and winning
Is charming young Jessie the flower O Dumblane
