As l cam' in bY Monymustk And doon by Alford's dale, A sad misfortune happened to me And l think nae shame to tell.cho: Fal to too a riddle doo. Fal to toodle I doe.As l gaed in by Monymustk. The moon was shining clear; And I held on to Lethendy To see my Maggie dear.I did gang when I did think That a' were sleepin' soun', But plague upon yon auld wife For she cam' slinkin' doon.Sae cannily she slipped the lock And set the door agee; Then crawled upon her hands and knees To see what it could be.Then to the bells, wi' a' her micht Sae loud she made thern ring. Till faith! l thoeht aboot my lugs The biggin she would bring.And when she saw l wouldna slip. She ran to the guidman. Says: "There's a lad into the hoose. And that l winna stand."For it is a most disgraceful thing. It would provoke a saunt. To see a' the servant girls wi' lads. When the gentle anes maun want.""Providence has acted wrang. Sic pleasures for to gie Tae ony servant lad or lass Just working for a fee."The auld man he cam' ben himsel' And he pushed ben his heid; Guidfaith! I thocht it was a ghost Just risen frae the deid.He'd duddy draws upon his legs, He'd on a cap o' white. And he'd a face as lang's my leg And in his hand a light.He's ta'en me by the shoulders broad An' pushed me oot o' doors. Thinks I, my auld lad, I'll come back When sleepin' gars ye snore.
