AN Excellent New Song lately composed INTITULED , The New way of Pittcathly Well . Or , The Gentlemans Love to his Mistress . To the Tune of , Pollwarth on the Green . (1) ONE Morning as I walk't In the gay Time of the Year When Sporting Nymphs do Frisk a●●●● To drink the Water clear , Among'st the rest I spyed a Nymph , Whose Beauty did excell , The Croud of Nymphs that now 〈◊〉 , The fam'd Pittcathly Well . (2) With Dying Looks I veiw'd her , And could not shun , but say , Pray make me your Phisician , She blushing said me Nay . I ask't at her , to take a Walk , She fear'd we would be seen , Well take a walk in Woods or Grov●● In our Pitatchly Green . (3) Our striving much at last , Kind Nature took my Part , We Walk't by Neptun's pleasant Streams Till Jeanny won my Heart . Were I Sole Monarch of the Glob , I 'd give it all to thee : For all the Maids about the Well , My Jeanny bears the Gree. (4) When I come home at Noon , Refresht with Country Air , Each courts his Mistaess up and down And I my Jannie fair . We danc'd right kind upon the Green , And All sing merrily : Pittcathly Well invite you All , Come here good Company . (5) When I go Home at Night , With Love and care opprest , My Jeanies Image still presents , And Robes me of my Rest , I Dream of her my Souls Delight , Whose Air and graceful mean . Makes her envy'd by all the Nymphs In our Pittcatthly Green . (9) O were I but so blest ! as freely call the min● , I' do treat thee in my Fathers House , With Country Cheer that 's fine And if there be no Downy Beds , I 'le chose a place unseen , Where Young Swans do often Shape , There Nymphs a gown of Green . FINIS .
