WHen Phaebus bright, the Azure-skies with golden rayes enlightneth, These things sublunar he espies; Herbs, Trees, and Plants he quick'neth Among all those he makes his choise and gladly goes he thorow, With radiant beams and silver streams, through Leader-Haughs and Yarow, When Aries the day and night, in equal length divideth; Old frosty Saturn [t]akes the flight no longer he abideth: Then Flora Queen, with Mantle green casts off her former sorrow, And vows to dwell with Caeres sell in Leader-Haughs and Yarow. Pan Playing on his Oaten Reed, with Shepherds him attending, Doth here resort their flocks to feed, the Hills and Haughs commending: With bottle, bag, and staff with knag, and all singing Good morrow, They swear no Fields more pleasure yeelds than Leader-Haughs and Yarow. One house there stands on Leader side surmounting my descryving: With Ease-rooms rair, and windows fair like Daedalus contriving: Men passing by do often say in South it has no marrow: It stands as fair on Leader side as New-wark does on Yarow. A mile below, who list to ride, they'l hear the Mavis singing. Into St. Leonards bank she'l bide, sweet Birks her head o'r-hinging: The Lintwhite loud, and Progne proud, with tender throats and narrow, Into St. Leonards bank do sing, as sweetly as in Yarow. The Lapwing lilteth o're the Lee, with nible wings she sporteth, But vows she'l not come near the Tree, where Philomel resorteth: By break of day, the Lark can say, I'le bid you all good morrow, I'le yout and yell, for I may dwel In Leader-Haughs and Yarow. Park Wanton walls and Wooden.cleugh, the East and Wester Mainses, The Forrest of Lawder's fair enough, the Corns are good in Blanslies: Where Oats are fine, and sold by kind, that if ye search all thorow Mearns, Buchan, Mar, none better are, then Leader-Haughs and Yarow. In Burn milne-bog, and Whiteslead Shaws the fearful Hare she hunteth, Bridge-haugh and Broad-wood-shiel she knaws to the Chapel-wood frequenteth Yet when she irks, to Kainslie birks, she runs and sighs for sorrow, That she should leave sweet Leader-haughs and cannot win to Yarow.
What sweeter Musick would you hear, then hounds and beigls crying; The hare waits not, but flees for fear, their hard pursuit defying: But yet her strength it fails at length, no bielding can she borrow, At Hoggs, Clackmay, nor Sorlesfield, but longs to be at Yarow. For Rockwood, Ringwood, Reva, Almer, still thinking for to view her, But O to fail [her strength begins,] no cunning can re[scue her:] O'r dub and dike, o'r seugh and syke, she'l run the fields all thorow, Yet ends her dayes in Leader-haughs and bids farewell to Yarow. Thou Erslington and Coldon-Knowes, where Hume had once commanding; And Dry-grange with thy milk white ewes Tweed and Leader standing: The birds that flees through Red-path trees and Gladswood banks all thorow, May chant and sing sweet Leader-haughs and the bony banks of Yarow. But Burn cannot his grief asswage, while as his days endureth, To see the changes of this age, which day and time procureth: For many a place stands in hard case, where Burns were blyth besorrow, With Humes that dwelt on Leader side, and Scots that dwelt in Yarow. The Words of Bur[n] The Violer. WHat? shall my Viol silent be, or leave her wonted scriding? But choise some sadder Elegie, not sports and mirds deriding: It must be fain with lower strain, then it was wont besorrow, To sound the praise of Leader-haughs, and the bony banks of Yarow. But flouds hath overflown the banks, the greenish Haughs disgracing, And trees in woods grows thin in ranks, about the fields defacing: For waters waxes, woods doth wind more, if could for sorrow, In rurul verse, I could rehearse, of Leader-haughs and Yarow. But sighs and sobs o'rsets my breath, sory saltish tears forth sending, All things sublunar here on earth, are subject to an ending: So must my song, though somewhat long, yet late at even and morrow, I'le sing, and sing, sweet Leader-Haughs, and the bony banks of Yarow.
