The Scotch Wooing : Or. JOCKEY of the Lough , and JENNY of the Lee : Jockey Wooes Jenny , for to be his Dear , But Jenny long time is in mickle fear ; Least Jockey should be false or prove unkind , But Jockey put that quite out of her mind , So that at length they fairly did agree , To strike a Bargain up , as you shall see . To the Tune of , Jockey's gone to the Wood.

DEar jockey 's gone to the Wood and Dame Jenny's gone twa , Dear jockey would Court a good , but Dame jenny says nay : Come jenny my dearest love , prihee jenny fancy me : Thou art the blithest bonniest Girl , And the featest Lass , that e're jockey's ey'n see . When Jockey had Woo'd her thus , she said prithee forbear , Thou Jockey art false I fear , and would Jenny insnare : Dear Jenny believe it not , that thy Jockey is untrue , For I do swear by all that 's good , In this pleasent Wood , and by Bonnet that 's Blew . O Jocky shame faw thy Luggs , for telling sike a Tale , It is not aw thy honey words , are like for to prevail : For Jenny is a harmless Lass , fearing for to be trappan●d , Although that Jockey is a Lad , But few like are to be had , in all fair Scotland . My Jenny ne'r make a Din , but let us gang play , Since that thou art so neat and trim upon this Holliday : I 'le give thee ale and spiced cakes , I , and love the tenderly , There we● have a merry bout , And keep a Revel Rout , under the Green wood Tree . Dear Jockey I like it wee l , a little sport to make , Yet do I fear that after all , poor Ienny's heart sud ake : I wad not for a score of pounds , I should come unto disgrace , Then prithee Iockey get the gone , and leave thy Ienny all alone , in this uncouth place . O jenny ne'r tell me that , thy Iockey's sike a Loon , Thou need'st not for to be a fraid , by Iockey to lig down : For as I am a lively Lad , meaning to the honestly , I 'le give the nothing that is had , But the best that can be had , as Ienny shall see . O Iockey sud I beleive , 't is sure what you say , And that you sud yobr Jenny leave , and basely gang away : My Jenny i 'le plight my Troth , ever to thee to be true , Then beleive me what I say , For I scorn to gang away , to make my Jenny rue . Why sud I not now beleive , when dear Jockey does swear , By Bonnet and aw that 's good , that e're Jockey shall wear ? Then let us gang heam my dear , and be merry there a while , I love the heartily my joy , Thou art the onely Boy , on whom Jenny shall smile . My Jenny thou chear'st my heart , to give thy consent , Thy Jockey will never start , but give Jenny content : A Trenchmore Galiard we will have all for joy this very night , And i th morn we 'l gang toth ' Kirk Where i 'le see my Jenny smirk , as soon as day light . Thus Iockey and Ienny beath , agreed for to be wed ; For Jockey he thought it long to have Ienny in Bed : Next morning to the Kirk they went finely wedded for to be , And at this time are man & wife , Living free and void of strife , in their own Country .
